Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
2 cups water
2 cups raisins
1 cup light molasses
1 cup white sugar
⅔ cup shortening
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Directions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9-inch tube pan or two 9×13-inch loaf pans.
Bring water, raisins, molasses, sugar, and shortening to a boil in a saucepan; reduce heat to low and simmer until raisins are plump, about 5 minutes. Allow to cool.
Whisk flour, baking soda, and cinnamon together in a bowl. Stir flour mixture into raisin mixture until well combined; pour into the prepared baking pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean, about 1 hour.
