We’ve been trying a lot of Paleo bread recipes lately but so many haven’t turned out well. I’ve found the key really comes down to finding the right mixture of flours.

I was inspired to make this recipe after reading The Joy of Gluten-Free, Sugar-Free Baking. There are many grain-free bread recipes that can be easily modified to to be Paleo friendly.

I did find many of the recipes called for Stevia (which we avoid), but I found coconut sugar and raw honey work great as an alternative, natural sweeteners. Even my kids kept coming back for seconds.

What is Raisin Bread?

Raisin bread is not a savory bread that you would use to make sandwiches. It’s a soft, moist cake-like bread (think banana bread) that’s sweet and makes a delicious snack or breakfast.

There are all different types of raisin bread recipes out there but this one is healthy and made with whole foods. It’s absolutely delicious and so easy to make, something you’ve got to try.

How to Make This Gluten-Free Raisin Bread

This recipe is really easy to make. Just follow the directions and follow the baking times. Almond flour burns a bit easier so be sure to check the raisin bread at about 25 minutes to make sure it’s baking well.

How to Enjoy This Gluten-Free Raisin Bread

Enjoy it freshly sliced with some butter. Or toast for a bit and spread on the butter. Try it with a bit of fig jam to bring out the raisin flavor.

How to Make This Raisin Bread Vegan

  • Swap the raw honey for coconut sugar.
  • Swap the milk for almond milk.
  • Swap butter for plant-based butter.

Top Tips for Making Bread

  • Always use a pre-heated oven.
  • Avoid over mixing the dough as it can cause the bread to be tense.
  • For leftovers, store in an airtight container on your counter or in the fridge.

  1. This looks like a great recipe! I think my kids will like the bread. I just need to get ahold of some guar gum. I’ve always used xanthan in the past, but we are dealing with some corn allergies and our list from the doctor says to stay away from xanthan.

    Thanks so much for sharing this recipe on the Wellness Wednesday link-up. I look forward to trying it out!

        1. Yeah! I’m so happy to hear it. I bet the cinnamon made it even more delicious. I wonder if you could use chia instead of eggs. I’d love to hear about your dehydrated version. Thanks for visiting!
