Bread Machine Gingerbread Loaf - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup molasses
1 egg
3 tablespoons butter
3 1/3 cups bread flour
1 tablespoon brown sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon ginger
2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
1/3 cup raisins

Preparation

Put ingredients into bread machine in order listed, except the raisins. Leave those aside.
Set machine for 2 pound loaf, white bread, light crust.
Add raisins when the machine tells you to. (It should beep -- if it starts talking to you, you've got some real problems.).
Note: I used dried fruits not just raisins and found they added a little too much moisture because I soaked them. During the second rise I added a little more flour until the dough no longer stuck to the side of the pan.
