Ensure that your bread machine is clean and ready for use. Add ingredients to the bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer.
Start by adding the lukewarm milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract to the bread pan.
Next, evenly layer the gluten-free all-purpose flour over the wet ingredients to prevent any liquids from splashing.
Add the xanthan gum, granulated sugar, salt, and ground cinnamon on top of the flour without mixing.
Make a small well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the instant yeast.
Set the bread machine to the gluten-free setting (or a basic setting with a medium crust, if no gluten-free option is available). Select the loaf size to 1.5 pounds (or the closest option).
About 10-15 minutes into the kneading cycle, add the raisins and dried fruit when the machine beeps for additional ingredients. If your machine does not have this feature, pause it and add the raisins and dried fruit manually.
Let the bread machine complete its cycle of mixing, rising, and baking.
Once the bread is done, carefully remove the bread pan from the machine using oven mitts. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
Gently remove the loaf from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
