Bread:

1 2/3 cups very warm water

1 packet yeast

1/2 cup sugar

1 12 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup oil

3-4 cups flour

Cinnamon Swirl:

2-3 tablespoons milk

Steps

In a large bowl whisk together the warm water and yeast. Add in the sugar, salt, and oil.
Mix in the flour. Knead the dough for about four minutes, until it becomes elastic. Keep adding in flour if necessary to keep it from becoming too sticky.
Cover with a clean towel and set in a warm place for 1 1/2 hours.
On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a large rectangle that is about 5 inches wide, 12 inches long, and 1 1/2 inches thick.
Mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon, and butter in a small, separate bowl. Sprinkle it across the center of your dough, leaving the edges clear.
Sprinkle raisins across the top, and roll the dough tightly, pinching off the edges.
Put the dough into a large bread tin which is sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Allow the bread to rise for another 45 minutes to 1 hour before baking.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Bake bread in hot oven for 40-45 minutes, or just until the bread turns a deep, golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few hours.
During this time you can make the frosting. Beat all of the ingredients together until a thick frosting results. Spread onto cooled bread and leave for another hour to set.
