Cinnamon Raisin Bread is a delicious sweet bread that can easily be made in the bread machine. Perfect for breakfast or a quick treat.
Jump to RecipeThe bread machine makes it so simple to have fresh bread whenever we want it. I usually make just a loaf of white bread to go with our soups or stews. It was time to try something new, though, so I went with a sweet cinnamon raisin bread.
We all had a slice of the cinnamon raisin bread with a bit of butter spread on it for breakfast. The crust has a slightly sweet taste and the raisins add just the right amount of chewiness to the bread. Tyler said next time we need to add more raisins because he wants one in every bite. I plan to increase the amount of cinnamon next time.

I have been wavering for a while on purchasing a bread maker. But, the more recipes I see like this one, the more I debate pulling the trigger and making the investment. I love the idea of being able to make our own fresh bread with only the ingredients that we want to include.
yummm….The cinnamon raisin bread looks so delicious!!! I am making it this weekend for sure, thank you so much…
This sounds like such a great recipe. It would make a really lovely bread to use at breakfast time. I love that it has cinnamon and raisins to give it a lovely flavour and sweetness.
We have a bread machine that has never been used. It’s tempting to give it a try but sounds like too much work.
We love cinnamon and we love bread – raisins not so much! I am pretty sure we could switch the raisins for chocolate chips!
Cinnamon and raisin is such a good combo, I bet this tastes so good. I’ve never used a bread machine before, but I bet it makes things so much easier x
This recipe looks good to try. I like cinnamon this will really be so good to eat.
I don’t have a bread maker but it’s something I’ve been long considering because I love making my own fresh bread. Your loaf looks so perfect and light. Perfect for morning toast!
We don’t have a bread machine, and it sounds so convenient! Especially with the prices of bread lately. I love raisin bread and this would be perfect for my mornings.
