Internet
List of Ingredients
1 package dry yeast
2 1/4 cups warm water
3 Tbsp. sugar
1 Tbsp. salt
2 Tbsp. butter
6 to 7 cups flour
1 cup raisins
1/4 cup sugar
1 Tbsp. cinnamon
2 Tbsp. water
2 Tbsp. melted butter
Recipe
Dissolve yeast in 1/2 cup of the warm water and 1 Tbsp. of the sugar. Let stand 5 minutes. Stir in the remaining 1 3/4 cups warm water, 2 Tbsp. sugar, salt, butter, and 3 1/2 cups of the flour. Beat until smooth. Mix in raisins and enough remaining flour to make dough easy to handle. Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Place in greased bowl, turn to coat all sides, then cover and let rise in warm place until doubled.
Punch down dough; divide into halves. Roll each half into rectangle, 18 x 9-inches. Mix 1/4 cup sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle each half with 1 tablespoon water and half the sugar mixture. Roll up and place in greased loaf pans. Brush with melted butter; let rise 1 hour. Bake at 425 degrees F. for 25 to 30 minutes. Remove to rack to cool.
