I made Grandma’s recipe for snitz brodt last week and have been eating it ever since! I needed to use up some dried apricots and prunes I had gotten for Christmas baking, but didn’t use. It is very similar in texture to raisin bread but the dough is a little stronger in flavor.
First I soaked the fruit in brandy overnight–except the prunes
Then I mixed the dough and let is rise
I added craisins and dried cherries to the recipe and left out the dried peaches. I only made half the recipe and still got a lot of bread!! It freezes well–so that’s good.

Enjoy!( I am! and you will too–if you come and visit!!)

Kyra, I hope you have a wonderful birthday! I can’t imagine that we are getting so young! The bread is bringing back memories of childhood. I loved to melt a little butter on each slice! Love, Kendra
