Very tasty. I did make a few changes though....<\/p>
I used 1\/2 C. oil and 1\/4 butter melted. I added 4Tbsp. non-fat dry powdered milk. Also I cut the salt down to 2 tsp.,<\/p>
and I added to the flour: 3 Tbsp. ground flax seed, 3 Tbsp. 10 grain cereal, and 2 Tbsp. gluten. (no one here has any allergies so i can do that). I DID NOT mix the flours together, and glad I didnt. I put the whole wheat flour in a bowl, added 2 Cups A.P. flour and the remaining dry ingredients in the recipe along with the added extras I put in. Then after I added the liquid ingredients and mixed it up real well, I slowly added more A.P. flour to form the dough. I did not need all the 5 1\/5 cups A.P. flour.<\/p>
I ended up baking for 40 minutes, AND I got three 5"x11" loaves.<\/p>
Defiantly a keeper.<\/p>","CommentId":10,"DateRated":"06\/07\/2014 15:39","GUID":"ad0f2134ac7e44389a95e6d5415e37f5","MemberId":7818954,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"middjett","SubmittedDate":"06\/07\/2014 15:38"},{"Comment":"

I make this recipe at least once a week! I have added 1\/4 cup each of wheat germ, sunflower kernels (unsalted), flax meal and flax seed. I did not alter the amount of flour. This gives it a yummy nutty flavor and I love the benefits of the added nutrients and fiber. It is an excellent sandwich bread and makes awesome french toast.
