My mom use to make this all the time when I was a child. Now this is one of my favorite breads to make.

I have many traditions, this bread is one of them that I make every year for Christmas gifts.

It is a bread that can be made any day of the week besides give as gifts.

Are you sure there's no other moisture or fat other than the 3 eggs? No butter/oil/shortening?
