I decided to make buns instead of a loaf for easier sharing of this week’s Tuesdays with Dorie—Raisin Swirl Bread. I rolled and filled the dough as directed. Instead of fitting it into a loaf pan, I sliced the roll into 12 sections and used a muffin tin.
I gave half to my mother who then gave some to a friend who is going through a tough time. My mother raved about them. I liked them too. They are not too sweet with a hint of nutmeg and cinnamon.
Thanks to Susan of Food.Baby for hosting this week’s selection. For the recipe, visit her blog or buy the book.

Just beautiful, Wendy! I should have made cinnamon rolls, but the hoard at work didn’t have any problem finishing off the loaf.
Cinnamon rolls! I am so going to try this next time. They look so good 🙂
What a great way to make this if you are planning to share! Harder to do with slices.
Great idea to spread the calories around! They are cute and Im sure everyone liked them!
those look like the ones at our local bakery! but BETTER.
great idea! after i made this i thought how good it would be in cinnamon roll form. they look great!
Adorable!!! I love the little buns
Buns are a great idea. I’ll remember that for next time.
Making the bread into buns was a brilliant idea! They look fantastic!
Buns are good…the guys would want me to ice those up, but I think that yours looks great as they are!
this is a great idea!! i didn’t want to bake up a whole loaf but now that i can just give little rolls away… i have to make them!
Fabulous idea…much easier to share a bun than give someone a random slice of bread!
Wendy you are so creative! Love the buns idea. Hope your friend gets better.
I made rolls, too! Love working with this dough, which really, we didn’t have to do too much. I really want to try the bread sometime.
What a terrific idea! I wish I had thought about making rolls! I will next time. 🙂
such a good idea! i bet they were as delicious as they are cute!
Good call on the buns Wendy – much easier to share! Your shaping is wonderful. I wonder if I could do something similar with the BBA raisin bread recipe since I love that one 🙂
What a beautiful result. A nice not-so-sugary cinnamon roll.
Ciao Wendy, your rolls are fantastic ! I froze the bread in slices !
I hope these were a bright spot in your friend’s day. Great idea to make them into buns – I need to try that when I want to bring bread to work.
Ohhhhh good idea! Those look super!
They look gorgeous Wendy.
They turned out gorgeous!!
These look gorgeous – I love the individual buns.
