  1. This is the exact recipe I use and everyone loves it. Of course I put my own spin on it.
     
  2. good recipe make sure that you put it in an 8x4 bread pan and only fill it 1/2 way! otherwise your bread will bake to fast! makes about 3 small loaves for me.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

My name is Ami and I share my home with my husband, Carey, our two small sons, James and Charles and our daughters Meradydd (it's pronounced Meradith)and Kathrynn. Until recently, I was a Specialist in the National Guard. I'm pretty eclectic in my studies and I've learned a lot becuase of that since I don't limit myself. Right now I'm taking classes for animal care. I've also been studying a lot about herbalism and really enjoy learning about that. My mother and I also run a home based business for natural soap, balms, etc. We use only the most the natural ingredients available. I'm also a Mary Kay consultant. Busy, huh? :D I love to read and learn new things. My husband says our books will be the death of us. LOL. I love to cook and experiment. I also like to take walks, rain or not.
