Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make No-Knead Cinnamon Raisin Bread.
Step 1
In a spacious mixing bowl, blend together 3 cups of bread flour, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of dry instant yeast until well combined.
Step 2
Gradually pour in 1 1/2 cups of warm water, stirring until the mixture transforms into a shaggy, wet dough.
Step 3
Gently fold in 3/4 cup of golden raisins, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 4
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it in a warm, draft-free spot, or in the oven with the light on, allowing it to rise for 30 minutes.
Step 5
Lightly dust a clean work surface with 1 tablespoon of flour.
Step 6
Carefully transfer the dough onto the surface and use a bench scraper to fold it over itself several times, incorporating most of the flour into the dough.
Step 7
Rinse and dry the mixing bowl.
Step 8
Cut a piece of parchment paper to fit the bowl, folding it to ensure it lies flat.
Step 9
Place the dough on the parchment paper inside the bowl and cover it with plastic wrap for another 30 minutes of rising.
Step 10
While the dough is resting, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) with a 5-quart Dutch oven inside.
Step 11
Once the oven reaches the desired temperature, carefully remove the Dutch oven and transfer the dough along with the parchment liner into it.
Step 12
Cover with the lid and bake for 30 minutes.
Step 13
After this time, remove the lid and continue baking for an additional 5 minutes to achieve a beautiful golden crust.
Step 14
Once baked, take the bread out of the oven and gently transfer it onto a wire rack.
Step 15
Remove the parchment paper and allow the bread to cool completely for about 2 hours before slicing into its warm, fragrant interior.
Step 16
Enjoy the delightful aroma and the satisfaction of homemade bread!.
