Italian Burgundy Wine Sweet Bread image

This is my all time best recipe! Try it and it will become a favorite of yours too. I found this more years ago than I care to remember in a magazine. It's a very rare kind of recipe that you don't come across too often.

Categories     Breads

Time 1h20m

Yield 3 loaves

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups raisins
1 cup butter
1 cup shortening
2 cups sugar
3 eggs
4 cups sifted flour
4 teaspoons cocoa
4 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon allspice
1 teaspoon nutmeg
2 1/2 cups Burgundy wine
2 cups chopped nuts

Steps:

  • Place raisins in cold water and bring to boil, then drain.
  • Measure raisins after draining.
  • Cream butter, sugar and shortening.
  • Beat in eggs one at a time.
  • Add sifted dry ingredients alternately with wine.
  • (Batter will turn a grayish color- no problem, it looks normal when baked).
  • Stir in raisins and nuts.
  • Bake in 3 greased and floured 9x5x3 loaf pans at 350 degrees for 50 minutes.
  • Cool in pans 10 minutes before turning out to cool on wire racks.
  • Just before serving, sift powdered sugar over top of bread.
  • Note: I like to bake these in mini foil pans (cooking time will need to be adjusted) and use them as a part of my cookie tray to give to friends at Christmas.

The bread was a bit dry, but the sauce was delicious. I would recommend adding more liquid to the bread dough.

This bread is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still very good. I would recommend using a less sweet wine if you're not a fan of overly sweet desserts.
