EASTER RAISIN BREAD
This recipe is my adaptation from a holiday raisin bread which was submitted to my home Church "Heavenly Delights" cookbook printed in 1991. I jazzed it up with additional seasonings, cornmeal, rum and a glaze. In addition, I simmered the raisins in boiling water to plump them up. I receive many requests for this one. Enjoy!
