CATHY MADE MY CHRISTMAS BREAD

“I have been looking a long time for a raisin bread recipe that was just like Fred Sanders Old Fashion Raisin bread and I believe this is it! It is delicious. I used my long flat rye bread pan and I brush it with cream and sprinkle the top with sparkling sugar and it is as close as I have ever come to replicating that recipe. This was the first time I made this and it was delicious.  Thank you for the recipe. ~ Cathy.”

– Sorry this is so late but this bread, with pastel sprinkles, would make a perfect Easter bread. Thank you for the gorgeous photo! –  jennyEasy Christmas Bread

MADO MADE MY CINNAMON RAISIN BREAD

“Dear Jenny, I used your recipe first and made a great Braided Cinnamon Raisin bread, it was a great success and everyone loved it.  Yesterday I decided to make another loaf and make it bigger and modify your recipe.  I added, pecan and 3 table spoon of saffron water, one egg, both red and golden raisins in addition to your original ingredient of course. After an hour proofing it, the size doubled, I cut the dough which was the size of Mount Everest in three pieces and round them in circle, put the cinnamon/brown sugar mixture on top of each circle and then I placed the circle on top of each other and made a big mound.  I then used egg yoke to shine it (per your recipe).  I placed the dough in cast iron pot (Lodge) with cover on for 25 minutes and another extra 10 minutes, then took top off and left it another 10 minute.  Wow, the result was fantastic, the most delicious bread ever, the crust was fantastic and inside was even better.  I was worried that I shouldn’t have covered it in avon, but it turn to be a great success and super delicious. Please see the photo, that explains it all. Thank you very much for your friendly and great recipe.”

– Wow! This is amazing! Thank you so much for sharing all the details. It looks wonderful. –  jennyJenny Can Cook Bread

ANN MARIE MADE MY “BRIOCHE” BREAD

“Hi Jenny. Yesterday after combining all ingredients, I placed it in a large bowl, covered it with a shower cap & towel and placed it on the counter overnight. Today, I prepared my loaf pan, placed my dough in it, covered it and let it rest for an hour before applying the egg wash. I baked it for 35 mins and it came out perfect! Tomorrow is French toast time! Thanks for your great recipes, next on the agenda is the Easter bread. ~ Ann Marie Ward.”
