Time 1h27m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup unsalted butter
2 cups raisins
1½ tablespoons pure vanilla extract
1½ tablespoons ground cinnamon
2¼ cups all-purpose flour
1½ teaspoons salt
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ cup granulated sugar
1 cup golden brown sugar
2 large eggs

Steps:

  • Prepare the raisins: Add the butter to a medium-sized sauce pot and place it over low-medium heat. Once the butter has melted, turn the heat to low. Add the raisins, vanilla and cinnamon and stir to blend. Cover and let this gently simmer for 10 minutes. Then turn the heat off, keep the pot covered, and let it sit for 50 minutes.
  • Preheat oven and prep baking sheets: While the raisins are soaking, preheat the oven to 350°F. Cover 2 baking sheets with parchment paper, set aside, and adjust two racks towards the center of the oven.
  • Mix dry ingredients: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt and baking soda. Set aside. Add both sugars to a large mixing bowl and set aside.
  • Combine all of the ingredients: Once the raisins are done soaking, add the mixture to the bowl with the sugar and mix to blend. Then add the eggs and mix until they are fully incorporated. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix just until you no longer see any dry spots.
  • Shape the batter: Use a cookie scoop (approximately 2¼ inch) to drop the batter onto the parchment-lined baking sheets. Gently press each one down about a bit with the palm of your hand. There should be a couple of inches between them.
  • Bake the cookies: Bake in the preheated 350°F oven until they're set and slightly golden along the edges, about 12 minutes.
  • Cool the cookies: Let them cool on the baking sheet for at least 10 minutes and then transfer them to a cooling rack.

Tips:

- Use bread that is slightly stale or hard. This will help the bites hold their shape better. - If you don't have a food processor, you can use a blender or a sharp knife to chop the bread and raisins. - Be careful not to overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the bites tough. - Use a cookie scoop or a tablespoon to drop the dough onto the baking sheet. This will help ensure that the bites are all the same size. - Bake the bites until they are golden brown on top. This will take about 12-15 minutes. - Let the bites cool completely before serving. This will help them hold their shape.

Conclusion:

Cinnamon and raisin bites are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or breakfast treat. They are perfect for meal prep and can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days. With their combination of sweet, tangy, and cinnamony flavors, these bites are sure to be a hit with people of all ages.
