I can’t tell you how many pounds of this delicious baked good that I had for breakfast during all my years as a student in LAUSD. Well except for those days when I had the Peanut Butter Bread.
I found this recipe online and am super excited to give it a try to bring back the nostalgia of my days in LAUSD. Hope you all enjoy it too.
