My family love this bread. What's better is that it keeps way longer than the white bread I make. I used butter flavour infused rice bran oil instead of the vegetable oil from personal choice but would still make it with butter or oil if I ran out. This bread is yummy toasted with butter or honey! Thanks a bunch for sharing. Posting a picture as soon as the loaf cooks.

I have made this bread for years and get many request for it as a gift from my friends at Christmas. I use butter, pecans and sometimes will use half whole wheat and half white flour mixture. Maybe I should submit my recipe. Great bread.
