Cinnamon-Raisin Bread

Ingredients
All purpose Flour-11/2cups
Rapid rise yeast-1 teaspoon
Luke warm Milk-1/4cup
Luke warm water-1/4cup
Olive oil-2 teaspoons
Sugar-2 tablespoons +1 tablespoon
Salt-1/4teaspoon
Ghee/Clarified butter-1teaspoon
Cinnamon powder-1/2teaspoon
Raisins-1/4cup

Method
Mix the yeast - salt- 2 tablespoons of sugar with the flour. Sprinkle the milk and water, knead it into a soft dough.
Knead well for at least 7-8 minutes, finally apply a coating of olive oil to the dough and keep it in a warm place for about an hour to rise.

Punch the dough, roll into an inch thick rectangle. Brush the ghee generously, sprinkle a tablespoon of sugar and cinnamon powder and the raisins.

Roll it into a log from one side, and seal it carefully. Transfer it into a greased loaf pan, let it rise for another 20 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 375F. Apply a coating of milk on the top of the bread, and bake it for 15-20 minutes.
Take it out and let it cool for half an hour,then slice the bread. Soft and sweet Cinnamon-raisin bread is ready!

This is my first try, so was little skeptical about the amount of cinnamon & raisins..both the items turned out to be little less! Next time I have to add more raisins and the cinnamon! ;)
