(Comparable to common cinnamon‑raisin breads) .

📌 Highlights & Health Notes

• Natural sweetness: Raisins provide ~8 g natural sugar per slice, offering fiber (~1.5 g) and micronutrients like potassium, iron, and antioxidants

• Moderate fat: Each slice has ~7 g fat, mostly from butter—if you prefer, you can substitute with oil or reduce the amount.

• Whole‑food boost: Raisins are nutrient-dense and add fiber—2 g per ¼‑cup

• Customizable: You can lighten the loaf by using low‑fat milk and reducing butter, or boost nutrition using whole wheat flour and additional spices like cinnamon.

✅ Tips

• Rinse & soak raisins (plain water or rum) to prevent them from drying the loaf.

• Don’t overmix—overworking gluten will make the bread dense.

• Test for doneness after 50 minutes; if too brown, tent with foil and bake until a toothpick comes out clean.

TL;DR:

This lightly sweetened yellow raisin bread clocks in at ~180 kcal per slice with a balanced mix of carbs, fat, and protein, plus fiber and antioxidants from raisins. Perfect toasted with butter or as a breakfast treat!
