No knead cinnamon raisin bread recipe makes a tasty loaf of raisin nut bread with almost no work! This simple raisin bread is made with just 7 simple ingredients.
Stir the flour, salt, yeast, cinnamon, and water together in a large bowl. The dough will be shaggy, but be sure to incorporate all of the flour.
Fold in the raisins and nuts.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap.
Let the dough sit at room temperature for at least 8 hours.
Turn the dough out onto a floured movable surface. I like to use a piece of parchment paper.
Lightly cover the dough with greased plastic wrap.
Place a Dutch oven with lid in the oven and preheat to 450F.
Once the oven reaches 450F, continue to heat the Dutch oven for 30 minutes.
Carefully take the Dutch oven out, uncover the dough, and turn the dough into the Dutch oven.
Cover and bake for 30 minutes.
Remove the lid and continue to bake for 5 minutes, or until light golden brown.
Let the bread cool in the pot to room temperature.
Notes
Bread flour: I've used all-purpose flour in this recipe. The bread doesn't have quite as much chew, but if you don't have bread flour, all-purpose flour will work well.
Yeast: You can use an equal amount of active dry yeast in place of the instant yeast.
Ground cinnamon: The cinnamon is pretty mild. Feel free to use more if you'd like.
Nuts: You can omit the nuts and use an additional ¼-1/2 cup raisins instead.
