Very good and open to adaptations. I tagged this recipe to used up some ingredients I had on hand; so I used semolia flour plus the regular flour - forgot the milk and used vanilla yogurt (activia non-fat) and skipped the glaze. I used one regular bread pan and 2 individiual size pans - I think this will freeze wonderfully! Thanks for sharing!
