Dangerously delicious! This is the main bread I make in my bread machine, and have been doing so for almost 2 years. I usually split flour like so: 1&1/3 cup white, 1 cup wheat bread flours. Today I cooked in my oven for the 1st time. I changed servings to 15 to make a 2lb loaf. I mixed in machine, but took out after 2nd rise, split in 1/2, placed in loaf pans, let rise another 35min, then cooked in oven at 350 for 35min. PERFECTO!

Beautiful! The honey amount is just right. I think next time I'll try throwing in some dried cranberries. Thanks!

This bread is phenomenal! I live in Russia and have a really hard time getting really great bread, but with this recipe and my bread maker, I can have bread like back home.

Couldn't be easier to make and my daughter said it was one the best bread recipes I've made this far. The loaf was gone in no time. Outstanding.

We loved this bread! I changed the servings to 15 and ended up with 2 medium size loaves - just perfect, 1 to keep, 1 to share! A few little changes: I did decrease the honey to 1/4 cup as other reviewers mentioned that it ended up too sweet, used 2 1/2 cups reg. flour and 1 cup whole wheat flour (next time will decrease the flour - ended up needing to add more water), and increased the yeast to 2 tsp. Used the dough cycle on my machine, but decreased the rise time by 15 min. as the dough had reached the top of the machine (oops, might rethink increasing the yeast!). Formed 2 med. loaves and let rise a second time for 20 minutes. Baked for 30-35 min. at 350 degrees. I'm sure my husband will be requesting this one again!

This is a bit too sweet for me, but it got the thumbs up from the bf, so that's good enough for me. I know I'll be making it again and again for him. I did add 3 tbs of wheat glutin, which I may or may not do again. It was a very large loaf in my bread machine as a result. I also did change to 15 servings, however, as I have a 2 lb machine and some reviews seemed to indicate it wouldn't work as well with the written serving sizes. Worked fine as written and if I take out some of the honey I'll probably love it as much as the bf does. Thanks!

My favorite bread recipe yet. I use 1 cup of whole wheat flour and 1 1/3 cup of white flour for nutritional purposes. Love it, kids and hubby loves it also. They eat it at least twice a week for breakfast with fruit on the side. I set it up the night before with the timer and when I wake I smell fresh bread. Gotta love that!!!

I really love this bread! The first few weeks I did everything the same as the original recipe (except I use 100% wheat flour), but it was always a little small for my machine, so I upped the servings to 16 and it fit much better! I think it must be for a 1 lb loaf, mine is 1 1/2-2lbs!

Like many others, this delicious bread has become a household staple. I changed the scale from 10 to 15 servings and it consistently produces a nice, large loaf in my bread maker - and perfectly baked, too! As recommended by others, I've switched to using whole wheat flour and I think I'll try substituting the oil for butter next time around. Though it's a matter of personal preference, I also add a bit of extra honey... mmm! A fresh loaf of this bread is one of the best things to wake up to at 6:45 on a weekday morning.

The taste of this bread was WONDERFUL! However, I had a problem with the texture. It was extremely crumbly even though I followed the directions exactly. I couldn't slice it for sandwiches, but we still picked at it because it tastes so good! Hmm...next time I'll try to add more water/less flour or something.

Turned out excellent, wouldn't change a thing! I changed nothing, and it was light, bubbly, chewy, and almost too big for my bread machine once it rose! Next time I will try whole wheat flour in place of some of the bread flour, it seems like it would only make this delicious bread even better.

not bad! im still trying to figure out how my german bread maker works so i think if i make this a few more times it will be better. for some reason, the loaf was super small and hardly rose...so i think next time i will try 2 tsp of yeast like others suggested to see if that helps. thanks for the recipe!

Fabulous bread, great texture, soft, light and moist. I substituted 1/2 c. whole wheat for bread flour and used overflowing 1/2 t. regular yeast and 1/2t. rapid yeast the 2nd time I made this and it rose to the top of my bread machine. I think the rapid rise really made the difference, but still loved the 1st loaf with all regular yeast. Also, liked it best with all white bread flour, but do prefer to make it healthier with whole wheat.

This is the best recipe I have tried for the bread machine! I LOVE the texture and lightly sweetened flavor of this bread. It is great as morning toast with coffee.

WoW! Best bread i have ever made. I didn't want to alter this, as i do not make bread enough to feel comfortable in doing so, but, I LOVE honey, so I did add about a tablespoon more with the 1/4c. It turned out a tad bit darker on the crust than my liking, any ideas how to get a lighter crust? without altering the yummy perfect inside? Thanks!

I found this recipe last night and am already working on my 3rd loaf. I put it in my breadmaker last night and set it on time delay...the best way to wake up on a Saturday morning is to the fragrance of this delicious bread. I made the following adjustments: used 2 c. whole wheat flour and 1/3 c. bread flour and increased the yeast to 2 tsp. based on comments by other reviewers. This has already been written into my recipe book.

Five of us finished this loaf in one evening, just eating it warm with butter. Followed the recipe exactly, except that I used whole wheat bread flour. The honey flavour is perfect.
