This is the recipe my husband's grandmother made religiously every Monday. It has a great rustic texture and slight sweetness that makes wonderful toast - especially when slathered with peanut butter. I'm putting it here for safe keeping - I've lost the recipe once; never again!

This bread is a great make-ahead option. I often bake a loaf on the weekend and then slice and freeze it. It's always a lifesaver when I need a quick and easy meal.
