A loaf of bread takes too long to make — and isn't it fattening, too? So why bother? Irish soda bread says phooey to both these ideas.

Wickaninnish Inn, on the west coast of Vancouver Island, is the ultimate getaway resort. Chef Jim Garraway and team serve up irresistible breakfast and brunch dishes, including Cinnamon Vanilla French Toast (see "Romancing the Morning," March 2000 issue, page 89).

This pull-apart monkey bread tastes just like apple fritters, and it conveniently separates into little doughnut holes for shareable bite-size treats! Get the kids involved in rolling the dough pieces into balls and building the bread in the Bundt pan.
