This is the third time making this loaf. New yeast, quality flour, water was warmed to 125 degrees. Using a Breadman machine, white with light crust. mix looked a little dry so added a TSP of warm water. balled up and looked good before rise. all three loaves turned out about the same. Been using the ingredients with other similar recipes with a lot better results. Really want to know what I'm doing wrong.

I made this bread exactly as stated. I kept it in the machine for the whole process, not taking the dough out, forming it into a loaf and then placing it in the oven (why do some people do that?!) ... It was VERY good and came out in a perfectly shaped loaf ... I just want to add that my bread machine has Medium, Large and X-Large settings. I used the Large setting based on the amount of flour stated in the recipe. I hope some of you find this useful. Thanks for the recipe andypandy!

Awesome recipe. Somehow my bread didn't rise in the middle - but it was a beautiful texture - had excellent flavor and my husband & I both loved it. Maybe I made a mistake. But even if it turns out exactly the same way - we would definitely make it again. I also subsituted 2 cups whole wheat pastry flour and 1/2 cup of spelt flour instead of regular whole wheat and bread flour.

What a delicious recipe! I made rolls out of the dough and my family just loved them! Used potato water instead of plain water and added wheat gluten because I used white whole wheat flour in place of bread flour...the rolls were so soft and moist! Wonderful with my homemade soup! Thanks for posting!
