SO good! I followed the recipe exactly - just reduced sugar to 1/2 cup and added 1/2 cup chocolate chips. Everyone was suprised it was lower fat - it's moist, dense, and flavorful. It was gone in less than a day. A super treat with coffee or tea or for a quick breakfast.

I followed the instructions of another reviewer and did 1/2 the recipe and made 4 mini-loaves. I tried one with rum-soaked raisins, one with walnuts, one with mini choco-chips, and the last one plain. I did substitute half the oil with applesauce and hardly found a deficit in taste and texture. The walnuts were definitely the most popular, and we all ended up slathering the breads with some cream cheese frosting I had leftover from another recipe. That was definitely a tasty addition! I only give 4 instead of 5 stars b/c I think the spice ratio needs to be tweaked - maybe more cinnamon and less nutmeg. Great, nutritious bread - lovely with tea.
