Helpful tips:
This loaf freezes well. You may want to insert a wooden skewer to see if it comes out clean. There is a little bit of a trick in timing the loaf so the center is not raw and yet the edges are not overcooked. We love to slice up the loaf and wrap each thick slice individually in waxed paper to have as a snack on car trips. Enjoy!
