Author Notes
I found this recipe in my mom’s recipe box after she died, but I can’t ever remember her making it. Turns out, it’s a delicious bread and it’s perfect with your morning coffee. Unfortunately, I'll never know where the recipe came from, and I’ll never know how she feels about my replacing the AP flour with white whole wheat, the vegetable shortening with butter and the sour cream with yogurt. —Bob Vivant
