Recipe View For optimal flavor and texture, wrap the cooled bread tightly in plastic wrap and store overnight before slicing and serving.

Toasting the pecans enhances their nutty flavor and adds a delightful crunch.
Plumping the raisins in warm water ensures they are soft and juicy in the final product.
Do not overmix the batter, as this can result in a tough bread.
If the top of the bread starts to brown too quickly, tent it loosely with aluminum foil during the last 20 minutes of baking.
For a richer flavor, substitute brown sugar for half of the granulated sugar.
This bread freezes well. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and foil before freezing.
