When I saw this recipe, I knew I had to make one of these to celebrate Lammas in my community. Also knew I had to have one of those wonderful bread loaf pans. It was absolutely delicious and worth the time it took to make – I don’t bake very often and it took longer than 15 minutes. Served it with sparkling French lemonade from Trader Joe’s. Everyone loved it! Thanks for sharing these recipes!
Thanks for your great feedback, Phyllis. Sounds like you had a great gathering!
