As a busy health-care professional and mom, one of the most meaningful gifts I give to the people I love is my time and skills in the kitchen. I have been baking since I was 7 years old and while I still am an avid baker, raising three children, caring for three dogs and working full-time leaves me with little energy! My family appreciates all my efforts and this is a favorite extra "gift" I give people for special events like a housewarming or welcoming a new baby. It is especially good toasted with butter. —Krystal Horudko, Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, Canada

Test Kitchen tips
  • The honey flavor really comes through here, so be careful—if you're using a strongly flavored honey, as it may overpower the other ingredients.
  • This light and tender bread keeps well at room temperature but it can be chilled to help extend its life a day or two longer. It also freezes well for up to six months.
