Cover bowl and let rest 10 minutes.

Step 6
~11 min

Turn the dough out onto a greased countertop and by hand, knead 1/3 cup raisins (soaked in hot water for 10 minutes and drained) into the dough to evenly disperse them without breaking them up.

Step 12

Sprinkle 3 tablespoons cinnamon baking chips over the "far" 2/3 of the dough.

Cover and allow to rise 45 minutes, until almost doubled.

Step 16
