In a small bowl, combine the warm water and yeast. Allow it to sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, and cinnamon.
In a separate small bowl or measuring cup, melt the butter and let it cool slightly. Add the milk and egg, and whisk until well combined.
Pour the yeast mixture and the butter-milk mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir until a sticky dough forms.
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
Flatten the dough slightly and sprinkle the raisins over it. Knead the dough gently to incorporate the raisins evenly.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours or until it doubles in size.
Once risen, punch down the dough to release the air. Divide it into 12 equal pieces and shape each piece into a roll.
Arrange the rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, keeping them slightly apart to allow for expansion.
Cover the rolls with a kitchen towel and let them rise again for about 30-45 minutes until they double in size.
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack before serving.
