"It’s believed by some that the name Sally Lunn comes from the French soleil et lune, meaning “sun and moon.” Others believe that Sally Lunn was a baker who lived in England and made these breads for sale. Whichever story is true, Sally Lunn bread is a delicious, buttery bread that is traditionally made in a round shape. This recipe gives the bread its shape by baking it in a 9-inch tube pan. Sally Lunn tube bread also has a 3 hour rising time to help develop its buttery flavor. Yield: 1 round loaf..."
