To keep the signature babka braid from falling apart, add softened butter in the cinnamon-sugar mixture and spread it on the flattened dough. The butter will act as a glue so that when you cut the rolled up dough, the structure will not fall apart.

You’re an angel

I made this yesterday. Here are my suggestions. If you want to avoid the burned top, limit baking at 400 deg for only 20min instead of 30min. And bake at 350min for extra 15min on top of what calls for in the video. I started tenting right before the extra 15 min. Also reduce the amount of salt to 10g instead of 14g, and half the amount of sugar sprinkle (50g instead of 100g). You can adjust the amount of cinnamon to taste. Of you reduce the sugar and not the salt, the the taste won't be balanced.

Totally agree with @pingpong6861. Half the salt and sugar, less time at 400. There’s no reason to burn the bread like he does in the video.

A technique to making the dough more manageable is to put in the freezer for like 20 minutes before splitting. Keeps it firmer, more together and easier to "babka".

The amount of nostalgia whiplash I experienced from hearing "where's my skateboard? Nickelodeon" was immense

It's actually a timeless comment. I was born in the late 70's and can relate as well. First thing that came to mind was that older dude getting slimed on _You Can't Do That On Television!_ and then all my bros getting on 'boards and bikes and terrorizing the neighborhood Also "elderly 33 yr old" ... that was hilarious, I guess relative to a teenager you're ancient

The way to keep the bread from falling apart is to mix the cinnamon and brown sugar mixture With the egg wash. Then you spread it on like a paste and it helps the dough stick together in its different layers

Can't wait to try this, appreciate the written instructions and video references in addition to the list of ingredients.

Just made this and OMG IT'S AMAZING!! THANK YOU! This is the only recipe that I will use. The only thing I did differently is, I chopped the raisins which prevented them from falling out when slicing & twisting it & I added some of my sourdough base which gave it a really nice flavor! I didn't omit or reduce the yeast that was called for. Slicing it as you would a babka really made the swirls of cinnamon & raisins distribute so much better than just rolling it up as you normally would. My family thanks you too!!

I made this today & it is incredible!! You're a great teacher. Thank you 😊

This was easily the best cinnamon raisin bread I have ever had. I let it cool on the counter for 1.5 hours before taking that first slice and I was not prepared to be as floored as I was. Thank you so much for sharing such a rich and fluffy treat. The Maillard reaction on the exterior of the bread was the perfect touch to make this from just cinnamon raisin bread to THE cinnamon raisin bread. It's currently 3 a.m. and I'm doing my best to not sneak another slice before breakfast. Oh, I did one thing differently. I'm very familiar with making babka and usually pour sugar syrup on top of the loaves immediately after they're done baking. I applied the same additional step to this bread and it was absolutely perfect!! Anyway, thank you for the great content and recipe! You have a new subscriber.

Once again Bri, you nail it!!! This is going to be my hubby's favorite! Trying it today! Thanks for being so watchable and having such amazing recipes and videos!!! You taught me almost everything I know about bread making!

Made this today. It is excellent! Hubby says even better than the baked goods we get from the farmers market. I baked mine in a silicone loaf pan which ended up taking an additional 20 minutes to bake.

“Mom where’s the cinnamon sugar? Where’s my skateboard? Nickelodeon.” That hit home too hard😂

This was my first try at raisin bread. I am waiting for my second loaf to finish in the oven because the first loaf I made for my sister and my husband was unfortunately left out to cool during a family dinner. Needless to say less than half was left after dinner so I got up early the next morning to make another loaf. I am so glad that this was the first recipe I came across. Ten Thumbs up

Making this now!

Thanks Bri for your excellence in "Bake-torial". Stopped baking Raisin bread years ago when all the Raisins sank to the bottom of the loaf, though it baked somewhat OK. You brought this to reason, don't soak the raisins and then add to the dough...or else, soggy, sunk, raisins.

Looks delicious, well done.
