Oh my word! This is marvelous bread! I didn't have any bread flour, so I used all purpose. I also used only butter...no shortening. Simply marvelous!

This was far too sweet and flimsy to be considered a good versatile bread in my opinion. It did not hold together very well, and crumbled quickly. If you have a very sweet tooth and don't mind it falling apart this could be what you are looking for. If you are looking for a savory white loaf, this is not it. Two stars are for being true to it's "tender and creamy" claim.

Pretty good; I like that it makes 2 loaves. I didn't bother with the water and it still came out fine. I like the texture - I do enjoy some of the other bread recipes I've tried better, though. Thank you for sharing this recipe!

This is the softest bread I've ever baked. I also doubled the yeast and used butter instead of shortening. It tastes similar to a croissant. I still brushed the loaves with butter and put a dish of water in the oven. Delish!

This bread was wonderful! It came out beautifully. It is a bit dense, so I'm not sure how great it would be for sandwiches, but that's just my opinion. Others may love it as a sandwich bread. It is, however, the perfect bread for making french toast. It doesn't dry out like some breads can, and holds the flavor well. All in all, this bread was tasty, easy make, and a hit with my husband and kids, so its a winner!

This bread recipe was another big step for me in making a more complicated recipe with yeast. It had more steps but really wasn't all that difficult, I came to discover. I used my Kitchen Aid mixer from the beginning, proofing my yeast in the bowl then using my hook to combine everything. I love having my Kitchen Aid, really cuts down on the kneading called for. I did have an issue with this bread rising. I followed the instructions directly and still struggled. I set the bread on a warm oven and covered the bowl with saran wrap and a towel and it didn't rise much. It baked up fine, so I guess it didn't matter all that much. I didn't bother with the water bowl in the oven because I only have one rack. Didn't seem to matter with my bread, still came out great. Texture and taste-wise, I'm on the fence. I am going to use it for the Garlic Bread Fantastique tonight and let the family tell me what they think. I think this might be good for french toast tomorrow.

I haven't baked bread in years, but thought I'd try this one. It's so yummy. My 2 little boys devoured it and my dh was speechless. We ate a whole loaf right out of the oven. I'll be making this one again.

This bread turned out beautiful and delicious. It did have a strange texture to it. It did not have the feel of loaf bread really and it crumbled. But I would recommend it for a dinner bread, etc. Great recipe!

this is a lovely white bread. Easy to throw together, the honey will keep it moist, as honey has a tendency to pull moisture from the air. Light and tender, nice crumb. The only reason for 4 stars is I think it could have used 1/2 tsp more salt. baking temp and times listed were perfect. I didn't bother with the moist heat in the oven, or eggwash. I prefer white bread without the crisp crust. Brushed some melted butter over the tops after taking out of the oven. thanks for this nice recipe.

I made this and it looked and smelled wonderful!! The taste is ...okay...it makes fantastic toast or for a side of bread for dinner but as sandwich bread it is a little too dense. My 4yr old LOVES it, he will eat the bread with nothing on it. I made it with bread flour instead of all purpose, maybe that is why it is so dense. Next time I am going to half it & use all purpose flour.

This is the best bread ever. I have been trying several differnet bread recipes for our family to use and this is it. It has easy to follow directions and the bread turned out so tasty!! The crust was crispy and flaky and the texture was unbelivable!!! My husband loved it too. We had a hard time not eating it all gone! This is our all time favorite bread recipe!!!

Very nice texture even in the bread machine. I halved the original recipe. Here's how I adapted it for my machine: omitted sugar, combined all liquids, honey & oil (instead of shortening) & poured that into machine. Combined flour & salt,then put that on top of liquids. Finally poured 1 whole pkg yeast into one corner of flour. Turned machine on & 3.5 hours later I had a beautifully golden, tender loaf of bread. This is a keeper!
