Soak the golden raisins in warm water for about 1 hour, then drain.
Mix the egg and milk, then add the sifted flours, salt, sugar, and instant yeast so they don’t touch each other, and mix everything into a dough.
Once the dough comes together in one mass, add the butter and knead for 15 minutes.
When the butter is fully worked in, cover with a damp cloth and let rise at room temperature for about 1 hour, until doubled.
Punch down the risen dough and mix in the golden raisins and candied lemon peel.
Divide the dough into 6 pieces, cover with plastic wrap, and let rest at room temperature for 15 minutes.
Bake in a preheated waffle maker until golden, then cool on a wire rack.
Tips
Sultanas (golden raisins) are made from green grapes; they’re lighter in color and milder than regular raisins. Regular raisins work if that’s what you have.
Make the dough and let it rise while the raisins soak to cut down the total time.
