This is not pumpernickel but it is a decent brown bread. Pumpernickel has a specific taste and texture and this bread had neither. It has the texture if a typical quick bread. Sort of halfway between cake and bread. Taste wise it tastes like a brown bread but doesn't have the unique twang of pumpernickel. I found it best to eat it cold with butter. So make a good ?? an bread but relabel this. It's not pumpernickel.

This was good and reminded me of Anadama bread. This wasn't the earthy pumpernickel I was craving, a bit too sweet for that. Also, I added about 1/2 teaspoon of salt as the batter was bland. A perfectly good quick bread.

I love this bread. It's easy, quick, & very good. I used the new Enova oil with it. We really liked this, & I'll make it often. Thanks.

I made this easy recipe on impulse and, aside from no caraway seeds in the pantry, I followed the directions! It was cooked in 50 minutes but I'd advise checking after 45 mins. The texture is not like bread, yet its not sweet like cake - "unique" is the word I would use for a description. Thanx Kitten!

This is a neat little loaf of bread! Goes together quick, and it comes out nice and light, just like cake! Great plain, or with butter on top! I did omit the caraway and sesame seeds, other than that, followed your easy directions. This'd be a nice take-along to a potluck, too! Thanks for sharing, K ... It's a keeper! Laudee
