Loved this bread. Great for toast. I used honey instead of maple syrup as that is all I had. Also used three egg whites instead of the 2 eggs. Great recipe. Thanks for sharing!

Great bread - the wheat germ brings a subtle 'nutty' flavor to it. I was using a low-carb bake mix (Bob's Red Mill) and it came out pretty dense, so next time I'll add more wheat gluten.
