Cinnamon Raisin Swirl Bread

BREADDDD TIMEEEE
YOU NEED:
A scale, mixing bowl, OR if you have a stand mixer.
Ingredients: ALL GRAMS(except yeast)
440 g Warm Water
180 g Milk (i use whole milk)
260 g Salted butter
130 g sugar
4-5 tsp Active Yeast
28 g salt
1,050 g Flour
1 egg
cinnamon
brown sugar
raisins

In a big bowl on the scale, mix together 400g warm water, 180 g milk, 260 g butter, 5 tsp yeast, 130 g sugar.
Let sit for a min, covered.
Uncover, add in the 28 g salt, and 1,050 g flour(i use bread flour, you can use all purpose). Put on stand mixer(if you have one), and let it do its thing!

Once it is kneaded, put dough on slightly floured surface and knead until into a smooth ball. Add into a bowl, and cover, let rise for 40 mins.
Knead again, and let rise for another 30 mins.

Take out your dough, and separate into the two parts. Roll one part out like a rectangle shape. Take your egg and crackle it in a bowl, adding some water, and mix well. take a brush, and brush a thinnish layer onto the dough evenly. Take brown sugar mixed with a bit of cinnamon(mixed well), and sprinkle all over the dough. Take raisins, and sprinkle them all over.
Then roll your dough into a tube like form.
Cut it in half, and twist it to make a twisty bread.
Put in your oiled pan!, and then repeat!

Once both are in the bread pans, cover and let sit for an hour or just under.
Take tin foil, and cover your loaves, but allow room for it to rise, dont suffocate it.
I recommend putting tin foil on the bottom rack, or bottom of the oven, as the brown sugar will bubble and rise, and it will make a mess, been there, done that!
Preheat your oven to 350F, I never preheat it.. haha.
Put your bread in(tin foil on them), and bake until done. Usually about 1 hr to 1.5 hrs. Keep an eye on them!
Take them out when done, and tin foil off. Walk away for about half hour.
After take a butter knife and go around the edges to take the bread away from the pan. Do this until the bread feels like it will fall out when flipped over, else you will rip your loaves in half.
Let them cool fully.
You can cut these in half and put them in the freezer, or keep full!

They stay fresh for about 1-1.5 weeks. and then they are no good.
