Plucking Bread

Submitted by Tracey D Mizell

"A holiday tradition at our house. Similar to "Monkey Bread" but without the sugar and nuts. No holiday table is complete with several loaves of plucking bread. It usually doesn't last long because its so good hot out of the oven. The dough is also used in my Sausage Bread recipe and can also be cooked in muffin trays (I use Demarle cookware) for traditional rolls. It can also be used for cinnamon rolls as well."
