Hi everyone,
This year I decided to update an old family recipe for Christmas bread to make it a little more manageable. It came out well and I'm happy to share the recipe here. Even though the holidays are over this makes a good weekend breakfast bread. I've got the full step-by-step on my blog here along with some other recipes. If anyone makes this, let me know and I'd love to see some pictures. Enjoy!
