Black Raisins (Sultana)

Raisins are sun dried grapes and they are the highest in natural sugar of all fruit. Also they have no cholesterol and no fat! Raisins have been around for many, many years. I know when I was little we would get those little Sun maid raisin boxes to have for snacks and we always carried them around outside! My favorite though was when grandma would make me cinnamon raisin bread or Cinnamon Rolls with raisins. Those were the days. Other favorites for raisins are:

• Bread Pudding
• Barm Brack –Irish Pudding
• Cinnamon Rolls
• Breads
• Fudge
• Oatmeal raisin Cookies
• Indian Pudding

If you are a real fanatic when it comes to raisins you can find a yummy recipe for raisin pancakes online too. There are so many alternatives when it comes to cooking with raisins. The black ones are plumper than the regular little ones. This makes for yummy cookies.
