Thank you for sharing this easy & delicious recipe. I know I will be making this one again. I like caraway seeds & always have plenty on hand. This bread gives me a new use for them. The caraway flavor shines & the nutmeg adds a delightful note too. It was very easy to make, and has a light, fluffy, biscuit like texture. Thank you for including a pan size. I made this for I Recommend Tag.

Extremely good and extremely easy! Mix it up and bake it! What a pleasure! I used brown sugar, because I prefer it, but otherwise, as directed. Gave me a lovely fluffy loaf, full of flavour. Oh, I sprinkled brown onion powder along the top, and poured melted butter over it.. a tip from a friend years ago, that gives a lovely savoury top crust! Thanks, Lucid!

This is delicious! "This time" I used it as the biscuit portion of Mom's Ham 'n Biscuit Casserole. I was a bit concerned that it was going at be bit to sweet so I used 1Tbsp of Splenda in the 1/2 recipe that I made and it was great. This recipe rises tall and fluffy and will be loved by everyone at your table. As well as the Splenda for the sugar I used skim milk and just the egg white. I must say that I didn't have the caraway seed so I had to skip them. Thanks Lucid! :D
