“This recipe came from a colleague years ago and has become a potluck, brunch and family favorite! My staff used to ask for it every holiday. I love the convenience of great make-ahead recipes and this is one I turn to all the time. I like to sprinkle it with cinnamon and sugar when removing it from the oven."

I made this recipe for Christmas and it was a big hit. I don't like raisins, so I used cinnamon bread instead.
