RECIPE BACKSTORY
I like to bake bread but don't always succeed. This is a great recipe, few ingrediants, basic techniques and soooo delicious. Sure to get rave reviews from your fans! My daughter says it's perfect toasted and slathered with peanut butter. The honey for the recipe was homegrown and came from my oldest daughter's bees- just for that extra special touch!
