Absolutely delish, brought to a weekend trip with friends for a breakfast treat and it was gone the first day! I added an icing with powdered sugar, water and a little bit of vanilla extract but it certainly doesn’t require it. I have tried several similar loafs with sour cream and always found that they dried out on me for some reason; this one is just perfectly moist.
can you make this bread 2 days before giving it someone if its stored properly?
Well, I’d put it in paper bag and seal – I have put this in Ziplock and it just gets overly soft and the sugar topping just isn’t as good. You could wrap in Saran Wrap and place in the fridge.
