Category:     Baked Good

Description:
This is a special occasion loaf--sweet and fragrant, just right with a steaming cup of green, black or red tea. It doesn't rise as high as a loaf made with wheat flour and it can be a bit crumbly, but it still tastes delicious. If you like, you can substitute some thinned-down Greek yogurt for the milk. If you're using a liquid sweetener in place of the sugar, omit the milk.
