The holiday season is in full force. I always like to have homemade baked goods on hand to bring as hostess gifts or to share at holiday parties. I made this delicious breakfast bread this week to feed our house guests. It was a huge hit and the house smelled amazing while it was baking. It makes two regular sized loaves, but you could also make mini loaves to use as gifts. Stick them in the freezer until you need them. I promise you, or your friends/family, will not be disappointed.
