I have been searching for this recipe for years after losing my old Betty Crocker cookbook. All other recipes I'd found online didn't call for water. I'm so happy to have found the right one!

Tweaks

I cut the butter by 2 Tbsp, add 1/4 yogurt (I used blueberry yoplait because I had some left over), add a tsp vanilla, few dashes of nutmeg and clove. Makes a moist bread with a little spice.
