Directions
Nana’s Sausage Bread, My grandmother used to make this bread as an appetizer for holiday dinners Its also a great dish for a light supper or super bowl parties, etc It is not as difficult to make as it may sound Each loaf will yield 6-10 servings depending on how large you mke the slices , Really good basic recipe We were trying to copy a sausage bread we loved from a famous Cape Cod bakery Therefore, we substituted cheddar cheese and hot Italian sausage The recipe carried it off beautifully The bread itself was tastier than I have found in any Pizzeria It was savory and crisp on the bottom The DH Said he would like to eat it once a week The DS called it soldier bread because you can cut a slice, put it in your pocket, and be ready to hike over a mountain This bread is indeed the kind of stuff your grandma would like for you to eat!, Wonderful recipe You can tell grandmom made this with love Thank you
