Sprinkle with crumb topping (below). Bake for 60-70 minutes (large loaf) or 40-45 minutes (small loaves) in a 350 degree F oven or until toothpick comes out clean. Cool bread in pan on rack for 15 minutes; remove from pan and cool completely on rack. Crumb Topping: Combine ingredients until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. |

Notes: | How 'bout some bread recipes? There were given to me by my friend Sara, dunno where she got them from. They are especially "cute" (as in, nice for a date, dinner guests, etc.) when you make them using small loaf pans (2"x4"). Enjoy! | ||
