TWD : Raisin Swirl Bread


I want to warmly thank Susan of Food Baby, our weekly host, because this was almost the first time my husband showed his enthusiasm for something sweet and asked for more !!
This loaf is actually delightful I made it a bit less fat and sweet omitting the sugar and the butter from the filling not loosing any deliciousness I think.
I realized I should have rolled my dough thinner but I know this will be a recipe made a lot so I'll get a better look in the future !



Pleas visit Susan for the recipe and my colleagues for more swirls !

  3. Doesn't look like you lost a thing by leaving out some of the sugar and butter. I will try that next time myself.

  18. You sometimes have to wonder how Dorie has so many such terrific recipes.
    This looks great. I'd be with you on cutting sugar & butter - just enough to leave good flavor.
