1/4 c. warm water
2 tbsp. sugar
2 tbsp. butter
1/2 c. milk
1/4 tsp. salt

In large bowl soften yeast with water. In small pan combine sugar, butter, milk and salt. Heat to lukewarm. Add to yeast mixture. Stir in egg. Gradually add flour, beating well to form stiff dough. Cover, let rise 30 to 45 minutes. Spread in one well greased 9 x 13 inch pan or 2 (8 inch pans). Spread grape puree on top. Let rise again about 20 minutes. Bake in 350 degree oven for 30 to 35 minutes.

To prepare grapes: Pinch grapes (4 cups) and slip pulp out of skins into small pan. Set skins aside. Heat pulp over medium heat until seeds separate, about 10 minutes. Press through sieve to remove seeds. Add skins to pulp and stir.

This recipe is great! I use whole grapes. About 2 to 3 cups of whole Concord grapes with seeds. I put graham crackers crushed with sugar on top the cracker help soak up the juice from the grapes. I baked it at 350°F for 30 to 35 minutes. Thank you!!
