Delicious! Moist, perfect flavor, a little creamy, sweet, and just the right amount of crumbliness. I was looking for some tea bread with fruit, but this looked so good that I had to try it and just alter the recipe a little. Made it according to the recipe, but then mixed in about 1-2 cups of chopped strawberries (don't remember exactly how much). No one can stop eating this! I've been having this for breakfast, and also pretty much any other time of the day that I walk through the kitchen where it's sitting. I made this two days ago, and it's almost gone! My roommates have requested that I make another loaf as soon as possible! Thanks for the great recipe.

So good! Moist and tender, a little bit sweet. The whole family wants more of this!
