Apple Oatmeal Raisin Bread Recipe

By Linda Larsen, About.com

This delicious recipe will mix, rise, and bake in your bread machine. The combination of applesauce, oats, and raisins adds wonderful flavor and texture to the bread.

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 1 hour

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • 5/8 to 3/4 cup water
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1-1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1-1/2 Tbsp. butter, softened
  • 2 Tbsp. brown sugar
  • 2-3/4 cups bread flour
  • 1-1/2 Tbsp. nonfat dry milk powder
  • 1/3 cup raisins
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • 2 tsp. active dry yeast

Preparation:

This recipe fits a 1-1/2 lb. bread machine.

Place all ingredients in bread pan, using the least amount of liquid in the recipe. Select Light Crust setting and press Start. Observe the dough as it kneads. If after 5-10 minutes it appears dry or if your machine sounds as if it's straining, add more liquid 1 Tbsp. at a time until the dough is smooth, soft, and slightly tacky to the touch.

After the baking cycle ends, cool bread on wire rack for 1 hour before slicing.
