"Fibre, anyone? This is very easy and good, too. Sometimes I lose track of the point and replace the raisins with chocolate chips."

Love this recipe! I'd like to use it as a base for other additions. Can I substitute 1 cup mashed banana for the raisins?

This was soooo good. Rich, dark, sweet and chock full of raisins. Mine took a little longer to cook - maybe another 10 minutes. I used two different types of raisins for color variety. This loked and smelled great, and tasted ever better. Perfect choice for breakfast and this is a nice accompaniment to a cup of tea. MMMMMM. -
I made this but think recipe needed baking powder or an egg and maybe oil? It tasted very stodgy. -
This was just ok.. as others suggested the cooking time needs to be increased. I increased it by 10 minutes and I still had a loaf that was a bit uncooked in the middle. -
This bread is truly fantastic, rich taste, very filling and healthy! Exchanged the raisins with pumpkin seeds. -
This is very good and a perfect way to get your fiber in the morning. I'll be sending my husband to work with a slice of this to have on his way to work. I had it in the oven for 40 minutes and it wasn't quite cooked in the middle so I'll be sure to cook it longer next time. I added nuts and next time I'll try blueberries or strawberries because I think they'd make a nice addition. I love that this is so healthy.

I love to garden, both perennials and vegetables. I am always looking for recipes to fiddle with, especially good simple vegetable dishes. I try to use organic ingredients as much as possible.
