Giant puffy raisin loaf !! - a photo on Flickriver

Sort of a surprise....seeing as I have made the same loaf at least 3 times now.
It has never had "oven spring" like this !!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For bread makers.

It rose in the first ferment like it always does... sort of doubling in size like it is supposed to do in around 45 minutes to an hour.
It rose in the tins ...like it always does... in about the same amount of time..but, when I popped it into the oven..it was only about an inch above the edge. Then, pooouuufff. It jumped up to this overly large sized loaf.
I brushed on more egg yolk than usual...and, it dribbled down the sides too far. It got inside the edges of the tin and became a problem.
Because it rose above and out sideways... and, the egg yolk mixed with a bit of milk made it stick...I had to carefully slide a knife (a plastic knife seeing as I didn't want to ruin my non-stick tin) ... in and under the overhanging edges...which caused a scored area all along each side and at the corners there was a slight bit of destruction ...but, then, it popped out of the pan. Whew. Happy it came out in one piece.
I thought when I cut it I might find huge air gaps inside ..but, I'm almost halfway through it and there are only some minor areas ..so it is not all air.
Next time... more raisins and don't paint the egg wash quite as close to the tin....
It's a great, soft raisin loaf... one that I searched for a long time... I like to make it over any others I have tried. Still have no clue why it rose this high this time...
Bread. An experiment every.single.time. you make it.

If you'd like to try it here is the recipe and Youtube video.
