My mother baked bread several times a week when I was young, and this was one of our favorites. Now my family enjoys it, especially with homemade soup.

This bread freezes really well. I like to bake a few loaves at a time and then freeze them. It's so convenient to have a loaf of fresh bread on hand whenever I want it.

I added some raisins and nuts to this bread and it was a great addition. It gave the bread a little extra sweetness and crunch.

I made this bread with whole wheat flour and it turned out great! It's a little denser than the white bread version, but it's still just as flavorful.
