Instructions: This is the absolute all time favorite at work. If there were 2 coworkers coming late to a potluck and there was one piece left, they would fight over it if it was this bread. (no names mentioned, they know who they are.)

Because of the milk and eggs in the recipe it is not recommended that you use the delayed bake option.

Set the bread machine for Sweet Bread (8 for an Oster machine). Add ingredients according to the recommendation of the machine.

When I first made this, I had no lemons, so I used orange peel. I now use 1/2 t. lemon peel and 1/2 t. orange peel.

"Traditional Greek bread usually served with 1 coin hidden inside which superstition says bestows luck upon the finder. Do not add a coin to your machine but you may add a single raisin at the beep."

NOTES : I have added updated information to this about different peels I have tried.
