Plum Bread

(45)

This is called a bread, but tastes more like a cake. I make this mostly during the holidays. The spices in this cake just lend themselves to eggnog and Christmas smells. The recipe will make 1 bundt cake, 4 small loaves, or 2 medium loaves.

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda

  • 1 cup chopped nuts

  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar
