Cinnamon, not Raisin, Swirl Bread! After the rest in the refrigerator, the bread pooped a bit out of one end... The handy bottle of Sherry came in handy once again! There is no such thing as too much cinnamon... My attempt at 'snugly' rolling the bread... I had to measure the loaf pan because I thought it was too small! Soo shiny with the melted butter brushed on! I thought I blew it when I saw the cinnamon 'crack'...
Susan of food.baby selected this week’s TWD treat. Visit Susan to see her fabulous rendition of Raisin Swirl Bread. Her Cinnamon Toast looks super delicious! I LOVE LOVE LOVE cinnamon so this was a real treat for me. Although I have to admit, I was hesistant since I’ve never baked bread before. Thanks for a fantastic, flavorful pick Susan! Get the recipe here and make your own fabulous (Raisin) Swirl Bread!
I’m super tired, so a short post with pictures. Don’t forget to visit the TWD Bakers to see how their (Raisin) Swirl Bread turned out!

I can’t believe that was your first loaf of bread. It looks fabulous!

Gorgeous! Love all those process photos and your bread looks a lot like mine, well except for the raisins (and the additional raisins I tossed in there). Wish I had a slice for breakfast, all toasty with some melty butter on it.

First loaf!! Fantastic!! Now you will want to bake more – trust me.
Your bread is BEAUTIFUL. And I take it you left out the raisins. Not a fan here either. But doubled the cinnamon sugar and it was perfect.

It looks so pretty in that pan!! Im glad you enjoyed it! I used the rest of my bread for french toast and Im so happy I did. The french toast is the best I ever had. If you add Butter, Maple syrup and whipped topping you will be in heaven!!

My dough “pooped” in the fridge too, even more than yours! 😉
Your bread and swirl look fantastic. I made cinnamon rolls. This was a
great dough to work with!
