Very nice recipe. I tweaked ingredients to use what I had on hand. I used water + dry milk, butter instead of margarine, honey instead of sugar and 1 1/4 cup pf whole grain flour + 1 cup all purpose flour + 1/4 cup of gluten to replace the 2 1/2 c of bread flour as directed in the recipe. It was moist and fluffy. Absolutely a keeper for us :)

This is not a bad recipe at all. It wasn't as sweet as I had thought it would be, and it was really super thick bread. It was very good toasted with a thin layer of butter on top. Thank you for sharing!
