Directions
BREAD:
  • In a large bowl, combine all the bread ingredients.
  • Mix the ingredients together using an electric mixer on medium speed.

  • Once the ingredients are well blended pour the batter into a greased 9 x 5 loaf pan.
  • Bake in an oven preheated to 350°F for 45 to 50 minutes.
  • The bread is done when a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.

GLAZE:
