1/4 cup water |
1 cup milk, scalded |
3 tablespoons sugar |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
3 1/4 cups sifted flour |
3 tablespoons butter, softened |
1/2 cup chopped raisins |
2 tablespoons currants |
2 tablespoons finely chopped citron |
1/4 cup firmy packed brown sugar |
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon |
3 tablespoons brown sugar |

1. Soften the yeast in the warm water and let stand 5-10 minutes.

3. Add 1 cup of flour and mix until smooth.
4. Stir in yeast mixture and add remaining flour gradually, mixing well.
5. On a floured surface, knead dough until smooth.
6. Place in a greased bowl and grease top of dough.
