I made this recipe for the first time today, but have a question regarding the batter. I thought it would be wetter, although not as thin as other quick breads. It was very thick and lumpy, not easily spooned into a pan and I almost added more liquid. Is it supposed to be really clumpy and thick? I measured 3 level cups AP flour and only added the liquid ingredients listed, do wondering.

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 Recipe #185006. 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

This was one of those pleasant surprises that you sometime stumble upon on Zarr!!! I made this while looking over my team mate's recipes for ZWT3 and sort of threw it together without planing to do so...I was so glad this happened!!! I made a few substitutions - used 1/2 whole wheat flour, low-fat milk, "eggs-capes" and apple sauce instead of oil... because that's more my baking style when I just do things without planing - it work out wonderfully. The taste is slightly sweet... not at all "desserty" - lovely with tea and fabulous toasted when it is a day or so old. I had it fresh the day it was made as a light meal and DH wanted a sandwich made with it for lunch the next day. It would be nice with a soup or salad too...very versatile. Thanks for a great find lucid501!!!
