Place the milk, bacon drippings, water, sugar, molasses, eggs and yeast in the bowl of a stand mixer and mix on low speed for a few seconds until well blended.

Coat a Pyrex loaf pan with hardened bacon drippings, pour the batter into the loaf pan using a sturdy spatula and place in a warm draft free place and allow rising for 60 minutes.

Step 5

Place in a preheated 350 degree Fahrenheit oven on the middle rack and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until loaf is a nice golden brown.

Step 6

Allow to cool and remove from pan.
