Very simple to through together... the final product did seem to be rather dense... but the bread had great flavor even though I cut the sugar back by half... will definitely make again if a need a bread but don't have prep time for kneading...

This was ok but we all thought it had a slightly odd flavor and was way too sweet, even though I reduced the sugar. Probably won't make again, although I'd love to find a quick substitute for yeast bread when I've run out!

The creator of this recipe can not be serious when calling this wheat bread. 1 cup of sugar made this cake...a cake without any added flavor like vanilla or cinnamon. It reminded me of a sweet, a very sweet cornbread. It would probably be good if you turned it into a banana or another sweet bread. I was looking for wheat bread....a huge dissapointment

So I don't like having to substitute, but had to thinking I had three cups buttermilk instead of two - was gonna make 3/4 recipe. Anyway, stuck with the 3/4 plan using 2c buttermilk & 1c Greek yogurt. Added sugar as listed since that yogurt is a bit cheesy (if you know what I mean. & if you don't, try it - you will. ;D) I thought it was okay. Kids thought it was "too brown." :D 'Wish they liked it. Oh, in one of the three miniloaves I made, I added a heaping eighth teaspoon cinnamon. It was just barely noticeable. 'More would've been fine. It's pretty dense, as expected.

This is definitely an easy bread to make. I love that there's no yeast in it - makes it mighty quick to make. Personally, I love the sweetness of it, but if you're not into it you could easily cut down on the sugar to maybe 2/3 cup. Still, it's delicious!

My only change was using Splenda in place of sugar. I have mixed feelings about this bread. It was incredibly quick and easy to throw together but it was far from my favorite. I took some to my mother and she thought it was really good. I'm sure it would complement some dishes, as it is very dense and hearty. I actually think it would taste pretty good using 100% all-purpose flour but that would take all the nutrition out of it.

First time buying 100% whole wheat flour. I found this recipe on the side, but I cut in half,and I added splenda about 4 or 5 pks, I used Fat Free milk and I used 4 pks of Also Salt (salt subsitiute) Turn out great, not to sweet and not salty. I think next time I may just add 2 or 3 pks of splenda. Just because I don't care to much for sweet bread. I am glad to have to use regular salt.

Made this today for the first time and it is delicious. I did cut back on the sugar a bit and I was glad I did. I only made one loaf but will make another in a few days. I think i will make it a savory loaf then with some chives and other herbs mixed in.

Very similar to the Colonial Brown Bread on this site, which we preferred to this recipe. Taste is pretty much the same, except it seemed that this bread got moldy quicker than the Colonial recipe. Could just be the funky weather we've been having.

I made this to get rid of some buttermilk that was leftover. A good dense bread. Quick to make. I cut back on the sugar because of reviews since I was making it to go with roasted chicken. Glad I did. I think this would be good in the morning, toasted.
