MINCEMEAT-FILLED BRAID
Mincemeat has gotten such a bad rap over the years. Raisins, currants and other dried fruit, richly spiced and soaked in brandy...what's wrong with that? My family and I love it tucked inside this gorgeous-looking bread. It's perfect for breakfast or with dinner. -Loraine Steinfort, Shelbyville, Indiana
