Recipe Feedback:
“I thought this recipe sounded so good, especially when you mentioned using molasses…I made it today subbing the molasses in place of the honey and adding 1/4 c sugar…oh my goodness! It is delicious! Thanks for the recipe!” – Shelia
“Wow I can’t believe how healthy this recipe is, and it’s delicious. I added 2 tsp cinnamon and made 3 mini loaves—took 30 minutes. Careful not to overfill your pans; these babies rise high due to 1 tbsp of baking powder. Eating it warm or toasted is a must, IMO. I think it’s best served warm with butter and/or honey on top. Just a drizzle of honey and butter will probably work and make it a real treat! I’ll have to keep in mind using molasses instead of honey idea. That sounds great, too! Your recipes are so simple yet reflect a lot of love.” – Anu
