  1. This is a very good recipe overall! I admit I did tweak a tiny bit - I only had an orange (not a lemon) in the house so I substituted orange zest for the lemon, and used about 1/2 cup of juice squeezed from the orange in place of some of the milk. Otherwise made as written, and it's great!
     
  2. I absolutely loved this bread as is. The oatmeal makes it delicious and healthy. I have made this over and over and everyone who trys it is crazy about it. Thanks so much for an awesome recipe
     
  3. Awesome recipe... Great texture etc, and lower in fat... Second time preparing, took some of the other suggestions and replaced 1 cup flour with whole wheat pastry flour, added 1 teaspoon nutmeg, 1 tablespoon cinnamon--and also orange rind. Really good stuff. Now, we're wondering if this would work as muffins.
     
  4. very good breakfast bread, the texture is nice and so is the flavor. I added some spices: cinnamon and nutmeg to enhance the blueberry flavor. Also, it took a little longer than 60 minutes to bake. thanks for posting!

<p>I live in the Kansas City area and have many hobbies including cooking, reading and spending time with my husband and two children who are very active in sports now. I also have an eBay business which is a fun hobby that makes a little extra money! My interest in cooking focuses on making healthy dishes that are more satisfying than the higher fat and higher sugar versions. If I had a month off with no responsibilities, I would spend it at a luxury spa. <br /> <br /></p>
