Wonderful! Love using molasses -- good iron content! I bumped up the nutrition with 1/2 cup wheat germ, 1/2 cup ground flax seed, 2 cups whole wheat flour and used Whole Wheat setting -> more dense of course, but very tasty. THANKS!

I made recipe exactly and it is fantastic. So soft and just the right sweetness. I made grilled cheese for dinner and they were delicious. This is my favorite bread machine recipe so far.

This was a very flavorful bread, with a rich, molasses flavor. It makes great toast, egg salad and ham sandwiches but the molasses flavor is a bit too pronounced for a tuna sandwich (just my personal preference). It made my kitchen smell wonderful while it was mixing and baking. I'm saving this recipe to make again.

I don't have a bread machine, so I proofed the yeast in the water, then added molasses, butter and warm milk. Used my kitchenaid mixer to mix in flour and then knead. I'd doubled the recipe, so I let it rise once, then punched down and separated into the two loaves and let rerise, then baked at 350 for about 35 minutes. Lovely color, nice crust and wonderul texture, but it seems to be missing something. I might try adding some oatmeal or wheat germ next time to jazz it up a little.

Very nice dark loaf. I used white bread flour and whole wheat bread flour and increased the yeast to 2 tsp to prevent under-rising. The molasses taste does come through a bit, particularly in the smell. This bread is very moist and fluffy.

this was great! I only used whole wheat flour and put the bread on my whole wheat settings and it turned out perfectly.

This is the softest, sweetest smelling bread! I only did the dough cycle on my bread machine, then shaped the loaf and let it rise in a loaf pan. I will make this one again!

I rated this 4 stars because I didn't really care for the taste of the bread when it was fresh. However, it was fantastic toasted with some butter. The crust, texture, and density were nice. After reading the previous reviews I increased the molasses to almost 4 Tbsp. Also, I wasn't sure if the recipe calling for "all-purpose flour" was a typo or not (did the author mean to say "bread flour"?) so I used 1-1/4 C all-purpose flour and 1 C bread flour. And then of course I used the 3/4 C wheat flour the recipe called for. If you are a molasses lover, I definitely suggest you try this bread. Apparently I just don't like the flavor of molasses as much as I thought I would.

Fantastically yummy! I will definitely use more molasses next time because my husband adores molasses, but this was just great. Thank you for a wonderful bread recipe.

a superb bread! i mistakenly put the yeast in before the flour, and the bread got too big, but still tasted fantastic. next time i will read the directions more carefully, and add the yeast as the last ingredient, as my bread maker suggests. this bread is my new favorite.

I absolutely love this bread!! It is sweet with a great even loaf. It bakes up beautifully in my bread maker. I too loved it with a dilly egg salad. It toasts great as well. My new favorite!
