Hi there! I use this recipe in my bread machine but you could bake it in two loaf pans just as easily. It's heavenly when it's warm and spread with cream cheese! All I have to do is dump the ingredients into the bread machine and press a button. You'd have to knead, etc. without one. Possible, but I have no pioneer spirit. Enjoy!---Mary in SD Reformatted by Elaine Radis
