very good....not heavy like most homemade breads. My loaf took a few hours to rise but that was probably because of the weather.

This is very good. Easy to make and good. But i think it could use more honey and salt. Bakes up beautifully!!!!

I am a novice bread baker and this was easy to make! The texture is great and I even messed up and used 3 c. wheat flour and 2 c. white flour (instead of the inverse which the recipe states). Great bread! Thank you for the recipe!

This was very good. I will use this as a basic bread recipe. but as others suggested i will use canola oil or butter instead of shortning, and more honey. then i will go from there and add stuff i like. thank you so much for a basic recipe

This is truly the best wheat bread I have ever made. I don't have a food processor, so I do all of the mixing and kneading by hand. Everyone in my family loves it.

This was our second attempt at making bread. The previous recipe was too dense but this one is worked out really well especially for novice bread makers like us. The only issue we have is that it takes sooo long to rise (even at warm temperatures). We normally have to let it rise for double the time stated in the recipe. And the cooking time is longer than stated. Other than that, the bread is wonderful. It makes great toast after a few days as well.

I've made this bread three times. The second time I made it I forgot to read the instructions. Since I've been making bread for so long I just made it the way I always do. BIG MISTAKE! Letting the mixture sit for 15 minutes (I got busy the first time and it sat for over an hour. In fact I think the longer time made it even better) and putting the pan of water in the oven while baking are key to this bread turning out so wonderful. The only thing I changed about the ingredients was increasing the salt to 1 tablespoon. This will be my standard recipe for wheat bread from now on. I will stock up on canned milk so I will always have what I need when the mood strikes to have bread right out of the oven smeared with butter. YYuuuummmmmm!

the bread is very delicious. the bread came out way too dense though. The amount of flour the recipe calls for is WAY too much. use a lot less if you prefer lighter bread.

I have made several recipes of whole wheat bread and this just wasn't one of the best. Didn't rise as high and light as I would have liked, but still edible.
