Very delicious, easy. One of the best bread machine breads I have ever made. It did rise too much and then sink way down in the middle, maybe needed a bit more flour?

My husband and I enjoy this bread. Good tasting, quick to make. Easy to toast sesame seeds. I think all the ingredients and amounts used are in perfect proportion to each other. I wouldn't change anything. Thanks Karen

This is the first bread machine recipe I've tried that didn't adapt well to the manual method. For the liquid I used buttermilk, subbed wheat germ for the wheat bran, and subbed King Arthur's Harvest Grain Blend for the sesame seeds. Perhaps the substitutions caused the bread to rise very little, so it is very dense. However, the flavor is outstanding, so I will probably give this one another try.

This is my current favorite bread recipe.I didn't bother with the buttermilk powder and just used skim milk powder in place of it.To toast the sesame seeds I put them in my cast iron frying pan over medium low heat and stir them constantly.They'll burn quite easily if you don't stir them.I also doubled this recipe and I make it by hand too.Bake it at 350 for 35 to 40 minutes.The color of the bread always turns out golden brown so it's very pleasing to the eye as well as to your taste buds.This recipe will be one I'll be making again and again to share with family and friends.

I'm sorry, but I changed this recipe quite a bit, but it turned out great! Nice and soft and light and good tasting. I added 2 tablespoons of margarine, since there was no fat in the recipe. I used 3 1/3 cups of flour. I substituted oat bran for the wheat bran since that's all I had in the house, and I decreased the yeast to 1 3/4 tsp. of bread machine yeast.

It was a little heavy on the sesame taste for my liking but my family love it!

I think the failure in this recipe was mine. I over roasted the sesame seeds almost to the point of burnt (10 min @ 350). The taste carried through to the bread. Not sure if I will give this one another try.

I used 1 Tbsp. of 2% milk instead of powdered buttermilk, used all purpose flour instead of bread flour and only used 1 1/2 of that and about 1 1/2 c. of wheat flour. I used about 1/3c of Sesame seeds instead of 1/2c. The ends are VERY chewy, and yet crunchy. My son didn't seem to like this bread too much. My husband enjoyed it, but it wasn't a favorite. Oh well!! We'll keep looking!! Also, I cooked it in the oven at 350 for 30 minutes.

Good! Gave 4 stars on advice of my sister. It's a bit chewy, especially the ends, and not as crunchy as I'd hoped...even though there's a whole 1/2 cup of sesame seeds in there, you could add more before it would be super-noticeable. Turned out perfect shape, no problems. Used powdered skim milk instead of buttermilk powder.

I really liked this bread, but I made some changes. I added 1 T. gluten, replaced 2 c. of bread flour with whole wheat, added 1/2 c. ground flax, and upped the bran to 4 T. (instead of 3). I also added 1/8 c. extra honey. The bread turned out great--I could taste sweetness, but not so sweet that it couldn't be a sandwich bread.

This recipe is excellent. I added 1/4 Cup additional Honey, and 1/2 Cup additional Flour. It has a delicious, nutty, sweet taste.

Delicious. The crust is quite chewy but the bread itself is fantastic!

This is such a delicious bread recipe. Just a few minor substitutions on my part.. I couldn't find dry buttermilk powder at the store so I replaced it with plain milk powder. Also, I substituted wheat germ in place of the wheat bran as wheat bran is actually less nutritous than wheat germ. Toasting the sesame seeds is definetely a must for this recipe. (And I only use brown sesame seeds instead of white.) Good bread recipe!

Nice way to easily use sesame seed in a bread recipe. Honey is a must.

Great sesame flavor. Wonderful toast.

I love this recipe! It's my favorite to make in our bread machine. Thank you to the person who submitted it! I add extra honey (about double) and make it even sweeter (I also have to add some extra flour). I also have experimented with adding other seeds to it (sunflower and flax) which is good too.

This bread is so good! I made it into rolls, so it needed extra flour. Flavor was so perfect.
