I do not know if mine look correct, but they sure did taste great! Just the right amount of salt, too. I ran out of whole wheat so used about 3/4 cup of all purpose white flour and seemed to be fine. This pulled together fast-timing is right on. Thanks littleturtle for sharing a wonderful bread. Made for All New Zaar Cookbook tag.
