Made this yesterday afternoon. I too had to add an extra cup if not more of flour. I was a little concerned as the dough was still a little sticky and quite heavy but they rose beautifully and the bread was excellent. Will definately be a keeper in our home! Thanks for posting.

Excellent bread recipe, will be my go to for wheat bread from now on. Has a great texture, very soft instead of heavy and dense as wheat bread tends to be. My only changes were to use butter instead of margarine, increased the honey to 1/3 cup and I did need extra flour but it's super humid in KC. Made three big loaves, one of which was gone within a couple of hours. Used my kitchen aide to do the kneading with the bread hook for 10mins. For those who said the bread didn't rise well, you might want to alter to steps and proof your yeast with the warm water separately, then add the rest of your ingredients. Also kneading thoroughly makes for better crumb and structure.

I thought this was a wonderful recipe. My daughter loves Potato Bread so I tried this for her. I did two things differently that absolutely do not take away from this receipe, it's just the ingredients I had. I keep yeast for bread making so did not use the individual packets and I used oil in my bread instead of margarine. I came up with two beautiful loaves of bread and I will use this recipe again. Just a BTW to Pam's review: I have learned that depending on the humidity, the amount of flour can vary even within any yeast bread recipe. Don't worry about it just keep a little extra flour out and available while you are putting this or any bread recipe together.

What an awesome bread. Great taste and texture. I used betty crocker instant creamy butter potatos, butter instead of margerine and I also used an additional cup of white flour in the end. Absolutely wonderful.

This is the best (and easiest) homemade bread recipe! My nine year old loves to help me make it. It slices up nicely for sandwiches or to just eat with butter--yum!

The best wheat recipe ever! after making this a few times I tried: + 3/4 cup oats , only 1 tsp salt, and 1/4 more milk... bake the bread along with a cookie sheet of water! amazing! This makes the best french toast and garlic bread I've ever had! ***** :)

Great bread. I didn't need to add any extra flour, contrary to what others have said. It was such nice soft bread.

Easy for a novice bread baker and yummy flavor--especially good warm with just a light slathering of butter! It did turn out to be somewhat denser than I expected. I also liked that it kept well; I just wrapped it in plastic and it was good for a whole week.
