The only bread recipe that has risen for us - maybe because we are canadian! The recipe is bang on! It works just as it is written. We too have been on a holy grail and are delighted with this bread.

do not hesitate in making htis bread. It rises beautifully and turns out HUGE loaves. I added sunflower seeds and next time will cut back on the white flour and try with more whole wheat. I did cut back a bit on the honey but not too much. Great tasting loaf!

This quickly became my staple whole wheat bread recipe. I always give two away and my friends and neighbors love it as much as I do! Hearty, wholesome, delicious!

I usually make very flat bread. This one worked even with my 7 yr. old yeast!

This is a wonderful recipe. I made two minor changes: I used Rapid Rise yeast to reduce the rising time to one hour (I placed the loaves in the clothes dryer right after a load of wash came out), and baked two large loaves at 400 degrees for 30 minutes. I will be making this bread again very soon!

This bread is SOOOOO good! My husband compared it to Outback's bread they bring you before the meal! (and he's really picky!) Buttering the top gave it enough 'butter flavor' that we didn't even need to butter the individual pieces. It does make a lot of dough! I made 2 loaves of bread and cinnamon rolls out of what would have been the third loaf. They were good, but almost too sweet. (the dough itself is pretty sweet, then adding the 'smear' and then the icing-sweet tooth addicts' dream!) I should mention that before this, I've only tried making bread two times- and neither time did it turn out. So the fact that this turned out AND it tasted good... It's gotta be a good recipe! :)

I used 4 1/2 cups of white flour, 1 1/2 cups of red whole wheat, 2 1/2 cups of white whole wheat. My kids were asking for more! Best bread I ever made!

My Dad made a heap of these over Christmas and every crumb was devoured!

This truly is a spectacular recipe! I was looking for a cheaper alternative to the "healthy" bread in the store ($3/loaf X 2 a week = this recipe is WAY cheaper!)... anyhow it is wonderful, healthy, easy and oh so delicious toasted with butter!

Outstanding! Incredible bread. I chopped some walnuts and kneaded them in as I formed the loaves. Adds another dimension of texture and flavor. Definitely a keeper! Also makes delicious dinner rolls.

Very, very good. I found it too sweet for my taste, but it's a good enough recipe that I will continue to experiment with other grains and less sweeteners. I can recommend not to use an airbake pan for this, unless someone knows how to adjust the temp and time. It was easy; my kids helped and I used the Kitchenaid for kneading (speed 2 until it pulled away from the bowl but was still sticky).

Fabulous recipe! I added 1 cup flax seeds, 1 cup sunflower seeds & 1 cup of mixed irish oats and whole wheat...had to add 1/4 cup extra water to get the right consistency but it came out moist and very flavorful!

I made this recipe for my mother who is on a low cholesterol diet. It is by far the best whole wheat bread recipe that I have made. I love that it is sweetened with honey. Honey has no cholesterol and very low in sodium. I added extra to the dough and I also used 4 1/2 cups of whole wheat flour. My younger siblings also enjoyed the bread very much. They usually hate wheat bread. I will definitely make this recipe over and over again.

Perfect! I let this rise three times. I did not find 2/3 of a cup of honey to be too strong. I also use half honey, half brown sugar. The brown sugar helps give the bread a browner color. I really think the honey helps soften the wheat flour's strong taste. This is a great recipe because it uses both bread flour and whole wheat. The bread flour keeps the dough from becoming too stiff and dense. I will make this again!

Everyone raved about it! I made one loaf cinnamon/sugar by rolling out the dough and spreading butter, cin and sugar on top before rolling and baking.

Super easy to make and very tasty. My whole family loved it so much that they finished a whole loaf while it was still warm.

I will never buy bread from a store again!
