I love the crust and the raisins.  Must be very deliciious!  Thanks for sharing!

Did you have any trouble with a burnt taste to the outer raisins? I always have this problem with cinnamon raisin bread when I try to mix raisins into the dough rather than jelly roll them.

This is so pretty, it should be on the front page!!

Thanks.  I didn't have any problem with the burnt taste on the outer raisins.  Usually the ones that are on the surface I just pick off.  The raisins seem to be pretty evenly distributed this time...

Awesome bread. Quick question, did the granola stay crunchy?

Thanks!  Nope, you can hardly see the granola in the bread.  Maybe next time I'll put some granola on top of the loaf so it crisps up.
