WWII Nut Bread
"Not Weight Watchers nut bread. World War II Nut Bread. My grandmother's recipe from a much simpler time. A very plain nut bread that was made "for company". Not as sweet or fancy as "today's" nut breads. An heirloom recipe that may or may not suit your taste. My grandmother would serve this with fresh churned butter."
