Hobo Raisin Bread

Hobo Raisin Bread as a fabulous breakfast.

Hobo Raisin Bread is sweet and easy. It is one of those recipes that was passed around in the 60’s and 70’s by all the mothers and aunts because ‘you just had to try the bread’.  It was just too easy to pass up. This modernized recipe is no exception. All the ingredients go into one bowl and then they are poured into a loaf pan to bake. It is a dark sweet bread with raisins that is actually very cake like. Moist and great as a breakfast or dessert. After you give it a try I think you will be passing around the recipe too.
