Notes

Serving Suggestions:
This bread is GREAT served warm or toasted. Use butter, jelly, or honey for breakfast.
Makes yummy peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for lunch!
And we have even finished it off in the evening after dinner by drizzling some chocolate wine sauce over the top and eating it warm. Oo, la, la!
