I grow my own sage just so I can bake this tasty bread. The incentive of a cup of tea served with a slice of this bread make my efforts worthwhile.Roberta Van Anda, Rumson, New Jersey Ingredients:
1/2 cup milk |
2 tablespoons minced fresh sage or 2 teaspoons rubbed sage |
1/2 cup butter, softened |
1/2 cup sugar |
2 eggs |
2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. In a small saucepan, heat milk and sage just until warm (do not boil); set aside to cool. In a bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Combine flour, baking powder and salt; add to the creamed mixture alternately with milk mixture.
2. Pour into a greased 8-in. x 4-in. loaf pan. Bake at 350° for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack. Yield: 6 servings.
