I would cut back on the sugar and make sure not to knead the raisins in any
longer than necessary because as soon as they start breaking up they release
sugar which will eventually shut down the yeast. You can add raisins to any
bread recipe - I would suggest doing it by hand (just pull the dough out of
the machine after the final knead cycle and before the final rise, pat the
dough into a rough rectangle, sprinkle with raisins, roll up and coil into a
ball that will fit back in the machine.

>Re: walking mixer
This isn't a solution, just a funny story. My first bread machine was a
walking DAK. It was so bad I had to use it on the floor, otherwise it would
march right off the counter. My dog Blanche (a large cream colored standard
poodle) learned to wait until the machine had finished it's cool down cycle,
then she would lift the lid and eat the top of the loaf. Took me a while to
figure out it wasn't something the machine was causing.

Have you ever checked out the Bread Baker's Guild Web Site? www.bbga.org.
They have archives of their newsletters and I'm sure you can find (among
other great information) the answer to your question.

I find that if you oil both sides of the dough just before placing in on the
grill you can put it right on the (very clean) rack. I have the toppings
ready, grill on side for 2-3 minutes or until the dough looks dry, flip it
over, add the toppings, then close the grill and cook for another 3-4
minutes. It's important to make the pizzas small so that they are easy to
handle.
