I slipped a bit with the molasses (about 1 Tbsp extra) and ended up with a golden loaf fragrant with molasses. I think I'll 'slip' again next time! I love that I can give my family a bread that's not only delicious, but chock full of wholesome goodness too. My kids don't like All Bran, but it disappears into the bread so they don't even know they're eating it!

i put lots of spices in it, cinnamon, allspice etc....with bit of extra sweetener......mmmmmmm makes perfect french toast or cinnamon toast...nice and easy:)

I added 1 extra tsp. honey, and otherwise made this exactly according to the recipe. It turned out perfect. Great recipe! Thanks for submitting, Jennifer. FIVE STARS.

Great texture, good taste. It rose up nicely, wasn't too heavy. Lacking a few ingredients, I made some substitutions. I used non-hygrogenated margarine instead of oil, skim milk instead of water and milk powder, and used All Bran for the cereal. Next time I'll maybe add a bit more molasses for a sweeter taste, and perhaps some ground flaxseed for extra fibre. Closer to 3 weight watcher points than 2, and that's not a very big piece, but still pretty good for bread. I'll definitely be making this one regularly. Tip for bread machine users - mix your flours and other dry ingredients ahead of time and store in airtight containers. When you want to make bread, just put in your liquid, dump in the container of dry ingredients and add the yeast. I generally have half a dozen batches made up in advance, saves time.

I stuck to the original recipe and it tasted wonderful!

Great Bread! I don't have a bread machine so I made it with the kitchenaide mixer and oven. It rose wonderfully and had a nice rounded top. Made this bread with 1 1/2 C milk instead of the water and powdered milk. Also added 1 1/2 tsp Gluten for each cup flour and baked at 350 for 30-35 min. and brushed top with butter. Made one with the bran and molasas and another with only honey and no bran. Both turned out very good.

I made this as is, only substituted butter for the oil. I would perhaps add a touch more honey next time around to sweeten the bread just a bit more. Very hearty. Even hubby liked it. Heck, even I liked it and I don't really care for very many breads.

Love this bread.

Excellent bread---nutritious and so good for you.

Yummy! That's all I can say. This is one of the best breads I've made in my breadmaker. I followed the instructions on my breadmaker for the order of ingredients and presto it was ready to eat!

Yummy Bread, with lots of flavor. I highly recommend it! I made it in the bread machine and then baked it in the oven. Next time I will make two loaves instead of one. It is very dense, but good.

I wasn't too crazy about this bread right out of the oven but I love it toasted. It's definitely the best whole wheat breat I've ever made. I have a 1 1/2lb bread machine and made the dough in that and then finished it off in the oven. I made two round loaves, let them rise 20 minutes and then baked at 375 degrees for 33 minutes.

Love this bread! I followed it exactly except I didn't have any bran anything so I used one cup of "Honey Bunches of Oats" cereal. Came out great! It rose well, has nice coloring, great taste. Even my four and three year old kids fight over any piece of this! I made this while my husband was away on business and chances are there won't be any for him when he gets back, he'll just have to listen to us talk about how wonderful it was!

It was OK. I was expecting something different, that may be why I'm not so excited by this recipe.

I tried this because I'm on Weight Watcher's. It's a heavy, hearty bread that came out perfectly in my bread machine. It might be too "hearty" for kids though. My husband and I make it a couple of time a week.

Okay I followed the advice of other reviews and added two tablespoons more honey, 3 Tbs vital wheat gluten, and substituted 1/2 whole wheat pastry flour for part of the bread flour. And the result was a hearty healthy wonderful bread. Next time I make it I will take it out before it bakes and bake it in my oven because I like the regular loaf pans better then my bread maker pan. Thanks for the recipe. This will deffinatly be something I save and use. I just made it again and didn't put any molassas in it just used honey instead and it was amazing, Loved it!!

This recipe makes a moist, dense, high rise bread. The flavor is delicious and it has good crumb. Wonderful toasting bread and makes good sandwiches. I let the bread machine do the work, then shaped the loaf and baked in the oven at 375 degrees for 33 minutes in a 9X5 loaf pan. Thanks Jennifer. Great Bread!

I've finally found the perfect whole wheat bread. I added an egg the recipe and used the dough setting on my bread mixer. I shaped the dough into two round loaves and placed each on a greased cookie sheet and baked at 375 for about 33 minutes.I found this to be the most moist of all the grain breads I've tried and I will definitely be making it again.
