Per Serving: 78 calories, 2 g protein, 0 g fat, 17 g carbohydrate, 143 mg sodium, 0 mg cholesterol, 1 g dietary fiber. Joyce's instructions: I adapted this recipe for my Zoji Breadmaker. Put all liquid ingredients into pan; then dry ingredients. I didn't heat the milk or water as the machine will. Also, I used 1 1/2 ts. Red Star Bread Machine yeast. I coated the raisins with the cinnamon and added them about 10 minutes before the second kneading cycle ended. I used the dough cycle, then baked in an 8 x 4" loaf pan, sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. After placing in pan, cover with plastic wrap or a damp towel and let rise in a warm, draft-free place, until dough doubles in volume, about 35-40 minutes. Then says to brush bread with 1 teaspoon skim milk (I didn't), and place on center oven rack. Set oven to 425 F. and bake 20 minutes. Lower heat to 375 F. and bake about 25-30 minutes more, until bread is golden brown and loaf sounds hollow when tapped. I found that mine was done after 20 minutes and next time would bake only at 375 F. Turn out onto a rack and cool thoroughly before slicing.
