Categories: Bread Blank
Yield: 6 Sm loaves

1 Cake of compressed yeast
1tbSugar
1/2cWater
2 Eggs; beaten
1/2cLard; or shortning - melted
2cMilk; lukewarm
1 1/2tsSalt
1/2cSugar
8cAll-purpose flour
  Glaze:
1 1/4cConfections' sugar
1/4cLemon, orange or lime juice
1tsVanilla

Mix the bread ingredients as for a regular loaf. Beat, knead and let rise in the bowl. The finished loaf should be half as high as normal so make 6 loaves not 3 in standard sized pans. Let rise a second time in the pans, bake, cool somewhat, glaze, continue cooling and slice into 1/2" thick slices. Toast in a slow oven until golden brown and crisp.

Glaze: simply mix the ingredients until smooth and spread.
