Hello Everyone! I just made this bread, and everytime I do I can't stop eating it! There is this yummy glaze you pour over the top of it, and let me just tell you that you can literally eat it out of the pan. It's good! So, there is a secret ingredient in this. If I hadn't eaten this first, I probably would never had made it. My mom made this for me when I was a kid and I never knew there was this ingredient in it. When she gave me the recipe...I had to look at it twice! The other night my YW were over at my house and they had some...they couldn't figure out what it was, I told them and they just laughed...So, what is the wierd ingredient??? Check it out yourself! But don't let it hinder you from making it. You should want to make it even more now because you are so curious! I promise you, it is my FAVORITE bread!
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. cinnamon (I usually do close to 2 tsp.)
1/2 tsp. nutmeg (I do close to 1 tsp.)
1/2 tsp. salt
1 1/2 c. sugar
3 eggs
1 c. vegetable oil
2 (6 oz.) jars plum baby food***
1 c. chopped walnuts (opt.)
Sift dry ingredients. Make a well or hole in center of bowl, add everything else. Mix well. Pour into 2 bread pans. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour or more.
***I have had a hard time finding plum baby food...so this time I used Apple Blueberry...tasted the exact same. It just gives the bread a nice rich color.
Topping:
1/2 c. sugar
1/4 c. evaporated milk
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/4 c. margarine
1/8 tsp. soda
Mix in saucepan and bring to boil. Stir constantly. Cook for 3 minutes. When bread is doen, still in the pan, punch holes in it with a large serving fork. Pour sauce over bread and let cool. Freezes well.
So...now that you know the wierd ingredient...whose gonna try it???

You're right, I wouldn't have eaten eat if you told me the secret ingredient first. I might have to make this one.
i've been waiting for your latest recipe. this cold, gray weather has me in a baking mood. that baby food is yummy and i bet it makes the bread so moist- it looks delicious.
I'm going to give it shot!
I saw a muffin recipe on Semi-homemade with Sandra Lee on the foodnetwork and she put babyfood in her recipe too. I thought it sounded gross. But the bread looks good. I will try it. I miss you guys. Callie talks about how much she misses Noah too.
I am going to try it! Sounds yummy!
I can't wait to try it! My great grandma used to make the best cake with plum baby food, but I can never find it!
I don't know that I'll eat any of your desserts again since now I know you use nutmeg. You crazy baking freak.
I must say, that is an interesting ingredient, but I am still willing to try it. :) It looks delish!
