First, this isn't bread, this is dessert. This recipe produces a very soft, sweet bread that is more like a cake or a muffin than a traditional bread or even a fruit bread. For the most part, the recipe is straightforward. It calls for cooking the bread in a coffee can (whatever that is). I found an old charlotte mold and used that instead. The bread cooks for three hours, so if you make this bread, plan accordingly. But it is made on the stove top.
Still, when all is said and done, it is a delicious bread and worth the effort. Reinhart mentions using other fruit, but I can't help wondering how well walnuts would work?
I agree ,this is a sweet bread, although too much molasses flavor for me.
