After about three days the crust on the raisin and pecan bread I ordered from Zingerman's was getting pretty tough to bite through. (Though I tried valiantly, I failed to consume the whole thing. Todd wasn't much help since the loaf was loaded with raisins and he's not a big fan.) Zingerman's also sells chips made from their leftover bread, so I thought I'd take a cue from them and bake up some of my own.

It was easy: I sliced the leftover bread pretty thin, then baked the slices flat on a baking sheet in a 300 degree oven until they were crispy (maybe 15 or 20 minutes?). Their a good snack on their own or dipped in some cream cheese or almond butter. The bread's not sweet, but there are so many raisins and pecans that the overall impression is a sweet snack.
