Thanks Nane!!! This bread is great! I'm sitting here having a slice for breakfast. I didn't change a thing, but I like the fact that when I was in the store, and saw all the varieties of muffin mixes, boy, the mind did wander. I think with the topping, an apple mix would be wonderful. OOOH, OOOH or a cranberry apple. The possibilities are endles..... I like how the almond gives the cheese filling such a little pop. Well, it is hard to eat and type, so I'm going back to eating. Thanks again!
