I make homemade bread every few days, I started a few months ago as a way to save money and cut back on processed food. Now if something happens and I have to buy store bought my husband and kids complain because it doesn't taste good. I usually make whole wheat or white

My mom use to make homemade white bread all the time when I was a kid, we always loved to get a slice when still warm with butter and jelly on it.

When the 5 kids were growing up I them different sweet breads sometimes and we also made fried bread which we all loved too.

My two favorite sweetbreads are banana and then pumpkin but very very favorite is the kind my mom use to make banana bread with m&ms in it. MMMMM

I found this online to share with you.

The year before my divorce approx 12 yrs ago or so, my ex got a bread machine and he LOVED that thing, he was making all different kinds of bread at least several times a week lol The kids liked it too.

4 cups of sugar

1 cup of oil

5 cups of flour

4 tsp. soda

1 tsp. cloves

1 tsp. cinnamon

2 cups of nuts (she used walnuts)
