One of our favorite bread recipes. We never add the vitamin C or ginger and it's delicious.

Left out the Vitamin C and the ginger; used safflower oil instead of butter; baked in the oven for 40 minutes at 350 degrees; yummy! Great sandwich bread!

I have made this bread before---I remember it because of the vit. C pwdr. I read in a bread book that vit C pwdr increases the rising process and helps with gluten. Anyway, I didn't have it (again) and so I didn't add it. It rose high enough, so I guess it is really not needed. I was nervous because this is the first time since Dec/Jan. I have used my bread machine with the full baking cycle. All other times the tops of the loaves have fallen. This time, the top was 'crinkly' but didn't cave all the way so I think I am successful again at bread machine making! Thanks for the post. My boys really enjoyed---they have been asking for me to make a honey loaf. (:

The combination of vitamin C and ginger is a bread enhancer, usually used to make the dough rise higher and/or to make it easier to shape. Using the two with an all bread flour recipe is really not necessary unless to shape the dough for rolls, etc. The ginger should never be enough to impart flavor and, in this recipe, it does not. I made the recipe as is except I used non-dairy creamer rather than milk (had some I needed to use up). The loaf rose beautifully and looked wonderful. However, there were "air pockets" in the bread which come from too much rise. I may make this recipe in the future, using either all purpose flour or whole grain flour.

This bread is delicious! I followed the recipe, except that I did not have the vit c on hand. So, I omitted that. This loaf came out soft with a nice crust. It had the perfect sweetness to it. This will be my white bread recipe from now on. Thank you!

This bread was light and fluffy and subtly sweet, but it seemed somewhat bland to me. We only ate about half the loaf. It was good, but not the most impressive loaf I have ever had.

The bread had a beautiful coloring and texture. I did like one of the reviewers suggested and used an egg and also skip the Vit. C, since I didn't have any anyways, and replaced the ground ginger with a pinch of Sassafras. I also like using goat milk in place of regular cow milk, since I find it gives my breads more flavor. My mother loved it and ate most of it lol. The flavor was certainly interesting, may used it as a sort of base recipe for other ideas I have in mind.

I made this according to the recipe (but used salted butter and did not add any other salt). Very good! Light and slightly sweet.

This bread is very good, although I made some changes. I was looking for a good recipe for white bread in the bread machine, so I omitted the vitamin C powder and ginger. Since I didn't have honey, I used corn syrup instead, and I used margarine instead of the unsalted butter. I also added one egg, as my bread would fall apart whenever I tried to slice it. The egg helped to hold things together. It also helped the bread to rise more. A good recipe to play around with. I've made it many times with the adjustments.

Very nice, light bread. Has a sweet flavour, with a slight tang. I used less powdered ginger than was called for. I also use salted butter, and cut the salt out down. The recipe fits my bread machine, but others may have to scale depending the quanity of their machines.

This was a great bread as far as consistency goes. Nice texture, golden crust, everything you want in a bread. I did make the recipe as stated except I had no honey so I substituted with Corn Syrup. The vitamin C powder does give it a slight tang and it's good. I wasn't personally crazy about the ginger though. I think I'll omit that next time. Thanks for a wonderful basic recipe though!

I've decided to replace my usual white bread recipe with this one. I have made it several times and it has turned out great each time. I have never used the vitamin c powder. I had to scale the recipe to 9 servings to get it to fit in my bread machine.
