Cinnamon raisin bread was always viewed like a treat in the Curry household. Papa Curry LOVED his cinnamon toast post dinner – or any meal really. Cinnamon Raisin toast was a late-night snack I remember stealing bites of when I was a kid.
This Cinnamon Raisin Bread is gluten free, dairy free, vegan, AND refined sugar free. You (and your kids) can enjoy this guilt-free!
Pegs used to take an almost empty cinnamon spice shaker and fill the remaining up with granulated sugar, so we always had cinnamon sugar available for our toasts. You can see how deep our love for cinnamon sugar toast is. After being diagnosed gluten free, there were many years were toasted cinnamon raisin bread was non-existent.
It started because I have two overly ripened bananas and wanted to switch up our normal banana bread recipe. I found Pegs cinnamon sugar shaker she made for the cabin here in Colorado and I immediately knew what I wanted to make.
This recipe is super easy to make and can last for a few days covered outside of the fridge, or up to a week in the fridge.
Now to get baking!
