Make This!!

Honey Bread!
 

This is an excellent bread. It might even be more of a cake than bread. It all depends if you want to serve it for breakfast or dessert. My favorite way to eat this bread is lightly toasted with a generous pat of butter.☺

 

There is a little bit of history that goes with this recipe. Whenever I see this blue card in my recipe box, I automatically think of the girl that introduced it to me. Her name is Patti and she was the first friend I made at WSU. I first tasted this bread when Patti's parents mailed her a care package & she shared some of this yummy treat with me.   Sadly, we have since lost touch, but she is always on my mind whenever I bake this bread.

 

Make this bread! It's delicious and oh so easy!

 

Honey Bread

3 1/2 cups flour

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

2 tsp cinnamon

1 cup brown sugar

1 cup honey

1 cup milk

 

Mix flour with soda, salt & cinnamon. Add brown sugar & mix well. Beat honey & milk in a separate bowl until well blended. Add gradually to dry ingredients until just free from lumps. Bake in a well greased loaf pan 2 1/4 hours in a 250* oven. Store two days before serving. Makes 1 large or two small loaves. Freezes well.

*NOTE: If you notice the bread is not rising fast enough, increase the oven to 300*. We have NEVER been able to wait the two days before serving!☺
