This is terrific!! I had just a little trouble...'stuffing' them. I soon discovered if you make the slit before cutting off the loaf it stuffed much easier. Next time I'll try using day old bread! I skipped the cinnamon but sprinkled with a little powdered sugar (personal preference of DH) Thank you Kerry!!
