Raisin bread

Mix the yeast with a little sugar in lukewarm milk. Put the flour in a bowl, make a well in the center, and pour in the yeast milk. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 15 minutes. Then add the remaining milk with the melted butter, the beaten egg, and the remaining sugar. Knead everything into a smooth dough. Finally, stir in the raisins and almonds. Cover and let rise for about 30 minutes. Then pour into a greased 30 cm long loaf pan, brush with milk, and let rise for another 15 minutes. Bake in the oven at 200 degrees Celsius for about 45 minutes. Halfway through baking, place a piece of aluminum foil over the pan to prevent the surface of the raisin loaf from overbrowning.
