Recently I managed to procure a copy of Martha Stewart's Baking Handbook, it came highly recommended from a friend. I read that book TWICE during the weekend and love it!! The pictures were lovely, recipes were easy (well, easy when it's in print!) and I can't wait to start making every one of those recipes in it.
Somehow this particular recipe was just calling out my name, I was hooked, I needed to create this recipe, even when I'm feeling a little under the weather. I couldn't wait to smell the cinnamon and all-spice rafting throughout the house, those smells always bring back memories of christmas pasts. This was better than any medication for my pounding congested head.
I made this bread, breadmaker-free, it really made me appreciate my breadmaker even more!! :) The overall result was delightful and even though it did nothing for my physical well-being, at least I felt grateful that at least my boys had a great breakfast feasting on the bread!! :)
Note: The amount of sugar asked for this recipe was, in my opinion, way too much, I cut down almost to half of it which, in retrospect, was a good decision. And brown sugar instead of the regular white one called for in the recipe is what they depicted in the picture. I also halved the recipe since it was way too much for my small family. Result, it was not as easy as I thought....;) but then, I wasn't thinking with a clear mind either!
