INSTRUCTIONS
Mix 1-1/4 cups flour with salt and undissolved yeast in large electric
mixer bowl. Heat milk, water and butter until just warm enough to melt
butter; add honey. Slowly stir into dry mixture; beat on medium speed 2
minutes. Beat in eggs, one at a time; add vanilla and 3/4 cup flour. Beat
at high speed 2 minutes. By hand, stir in raisins and remaining flour. Turn
onto lightly floured surface; knead 5 minutes. Put dough into greased bowl;
turn, cover and allow to rise until double, about 1 hour. Punch down; let
rest 5 minutes, covered. Divide dough in half; form into 2 loaves. Put in
greased loaf pans; cover, let rise 25 minutes. Make egg wash of 1 egg white
mixed with 2 tea- spoons water. Brush gently over tops of loaves to give
professional, glazed look. Bake at 375 for 25-30 minutes. Remove from pan
and brush with butter, if desired. Cool on wire racks.
