Steps:
- Warm the milk in a small saucepan until it bubbles, then remove from heat. Let cool until lukewarm.
- Dissolve yeast in warm water, and set aside until yeast is frothy. Mix in eggs, sugar, butter or margarine, salt, and raisins. Stir in cooled milk. Add the flour gradually to make a stiff dough.
- Knead dough on a lightly floured surface for a few minutes. Place in a large, greased, mixing bowl, and turn to grease the surface of the dough. Cover with a damp cloth. Allow to rise until doubled.
- Roll out on a lightly floured surface into a large rectangle 1/2 inch thick. Moisten dough with 2 tablespoons milk. Mix together 3/4 cup sugar and 2 tablespoons cinnamon, and sprinkle mixture on top of the moistened dough. Roll up tightly; the roll should be about 3 inches in diameter.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the bread flour, rice flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, combine the warm water and yeast. Let the mixture rest for 5 minutes until foamy.
- In a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar at medium speed until creamy, about 2 minutes. Beat in the eggs, 1 at a time. Beat in the yeast mixture. With the machine running on low speed, gradually add the flour mixture until a ball of dough forms. Remove the paddle attachment and attach a dough hook. (If a dough hook attachment isn't available, the dough can also be kneaded by hand for 15 minutes on a lightly floured work surface.) Mix on medium-low speed for 10 minutes (scraping the sides of the bowl, if necessary). Add the walnuts and raisins and continue to mix until the dough is smooth and springs back when pushed with a finger, about 5 minutes longer. Transfer the dough to an oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Place in a draft-free area at room temperature (about 85 degrees F) until the dough has puffed slightly, about 2 hours.
- Butter and flour the inside and outer rim of an 8 1/4 by 4 1/2-inch nonstick loaf pan. Punch the center of the dough to deflate it. Place the dough on a lightly floured work surface and knead for 3 minutes. Form the dough into an 8 by 4-inch rectangle and place in the prepared loaf pan. Cover with plastic wrap and allow the dough to rise in a draft-free area at room temperature until the dough rises about 2 inches above the top of the pan, about 2 hours.
- Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Remove the plastic wrap and bake the loaf until golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes. Remove the loaf from the pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Wrap well in plastic and store at room temperature for 2 days or freeze for up to 1 month.

CINNAMON RAISIN BEER BREAD (GLUTEN-FREE)
I had never had beer bread before and this looked delicious. I found this on a forum and decided to give it a shot. The baking made the whole house smell delicious and the taste was great! This makes a very dense bread, so slice it thin. It is almost fat free! I calculated it to have about 0.4g fat per 1/2" slice. In addition to being fat free, it is also egg and dairy free. I didn't experience any deflating. Makes a 8" x 4" loaf. *For the gluten free flour, I used Bette Hagman's mix: 2 parts garfava bean flour, 1 part sorghum flour, 3 parts cornstarch, and 3 parts tapioca flour. I used a bottle of New Grist beer: http://www.newgrist.com/ which I think tastes much better than Red Bridge.

Tips:
- Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting. This promotes even blending and a smooth batter.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense bread.
- If the dough is too sticky to handle, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time, until it reaches a manageable consistency.
- Generously grease the loaf pan before pouring in the batter. This prevents the bread from sticking and ensures easy removal.
- Bake the bread in a preheated oven. This ensures the bread rises evenly and develops a golden-brown crust.
- Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing and serving. This allows the flavors to meld and the texture to set.

With its tender crumb, sweet cinnamon swirl, and plump raisins, this Cinnamon Raisin Beer Bread is a delightful treat that is easy to make and perfect for any occasion.
