Just like Grandma made it, she’ll love this classic old-fashioned bread recipe with vanilla sauce! This warm and comforting recipe is best served any time of the year with your favorite brand of vanilla ice cream. Filled with sweet flavors of vanilla, fresh nutmeg, raisins, and sugar, this recipe is the perfect way to finish any meal.
We found this recipe tucked inside my mom’s Bible while we were browsing her things. It has become a family tradition on the first snowy day of the year, and if not, which could be the case here in Central Virginia, we know it will be the signature dessert on Easter and anytime comfort food is available. Arrangement.
