Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. When the machine beeps at the end of the
cycle, using a dough scraper, turn the dough out onto a clean work surface. Pat
into an uneven oval loaf shape. Sprinkle with the raisins and fold in half. Knead
gently to distribute evenly. Even out and smooth the dough. Shape into a tight
round. Place on the baking sheet and brush the top with olive oil. Cover loosely
with plastic wrap and let rise at room temperature until doubled in bulk, about 1
hour.
Twenty minutes before baking, preheat the oven to 350°F.
Brush the surface of the loaf again with olive oil, and, using a sharp knife, slash an X
on the top, no deeper than
1
/
2
inch. Bake in the center of the oven for 30 to 35
minutes, until dark brown and the bottom sounds hollow when tapped. Place the
loaf on a rack. Let cool to room temperature before slicing.
