Yield 1 (8 inch) loaf

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup dark rum
3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
2/3 cup milk
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 3/4 cups flour
3/4 cup coarsely chopped ripe papaya
Butter, for preparing pan

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine the raisins with the rum and leave to macerate for 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 350/. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar, oil, and eggs. Beat together until blended. Whisk in the milk, then add the baking soda, salt, and flour and blend thoroughly. Fold in the papaya and the raisins, drained. Generously butter an 8 x 5 inch loaf pan and pour the batter into the pan, shaking to help it find its level. Bake the bread for 1 hour, or until the center springs back and the edges are beginning to pull away from the pan. Cool the pan on a rack, then turn out and slice for serving.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my bread turned out dry and crumbly. I'm disappointed.

I accidentally used too much papaya, and the bread was a bit too moist. I think it would be better with less papaya.

I found this bread to be a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would prefer it with less sugar.

This papaya and raisin bread was a delightful surprise! The tangy sweetness of the papaya paired perfectly with the plump raisins, and the bread itself was incredibly soft and moist. I'll definitely be making this again.
