I made the recipe from The Baking Sheet this morning, and oh my oh my! I used all raisins instead just because that's my family's preference, and I did cut back a smidge on the amount of fruit. I have a question: can I make these up the night before? Does the baking powder make that ill-advised? I saw above you recommended the last 1/3 of the second rise in the fridge. Is that the best way to go, or should I do the first rise in the fridge, let them warm while we get ready for church, let them rise while we're AT church and bake at home? (That's what I do with my so-called Sunday Bread...) I think these should work well with your Sunday technique. Give it a try and let us know how it comes out. Have fun with it. Mary @ KAF
