I've been waiting for it to actually be Fall just so I can make this bread. Okay, may not just for this bread, but it's a pretty big part of it. I first made it last year, before I had a blog. I found it on Katie's blog, so I knew it would be good. Katie makes her harvest bread with apples only, but I like lots of "stuff" in my bread. If you're looking for a great recipe for the start of Fall, this is it. Look no further.
