No-Knead Cinnamon Raisin Bread
Making bread can either be satisfying or a pain in the you know what, right? I love making bread but I am not a fan of the kneading (how do I know when I am finished). The rising process…who as days for that, right?
So, when I discovered this no knead bread I was ecstatic! I tried out a few loaves and then just couldn't stop making it…and making it….and eating it!
The bread is easy to make and, I need to say, this is NOT my recipe. Steve @ Artisian Bread came up with the recipe. I added more brown sugar and cinnamon! 🙂 You can find his video HERE.

Cinnamon Raisin Bread
Ingredients
- 2 C cool tap water
- 1 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
- 3 Tbsp brown sugar
- 1-2 Tbsp cinnamon
- 3 1/2 C flour
- 1 C raisins
Instructions
For the bread (dough) and 1st rise
- Add water, yeast salt, brown sugar and cinnamon to a large bowl. Stir (the cinnamon won't completely incorporate)
- Add flour and raisins and stir (I use the handle of a wooden spoon) until all of the flour is incorporated
- Cover tightly with plastic wrap. Let proof 12-24 hours (overnight) on the kitchen counter.
The next day
- Spray one of your OXO baking pans or your dutch oven with oil. I use coconut oil for this bread.
- Degas your dough. Insert the handle of your long spoon and stir until it forms a bowl (only takes about 20 seconds)
- Roll your dough into the bread pan that you sprayed. Cover with the other bread pan and clip 2 sides with a binder clip or cover with your dutch oven cover.
2nd proofing
- Proof 30-60 minutes
- Move oven rack to the bottom of the oven.
- Preheat oven to 400º
Baking
- Bake for 55 minutes with the top on
- Remove top (remember that those binder clips are HOT)
- Bake 3-5 minutes more to brown the crustEnjoy!
Notes
- You can find all of the supplies I used right HERE
- Poor mans dutch oven – 2 4.5 x 8.5 bread pans. I use the OXO ones and love them.
- Clip together with an extra large binder clip.
