This bread is a great make-ahead breakfast. I like to make it on the weekend and then slice it and freeze it. It's a quick and easy breakfast during the week.

I'm not a big fan of dried fruit, but I loved this bread. The dried fruit added a nice sweetness and texture to the bread.

This bread is so moist and flavorful. I can't believe it's made with whole wheat flour.

I love that this bread is made with whole wheat flour. It's a healthier option than white bread, but it's still just as delicious.

I'm gluten-free, so I substituted gluten-free flour for the all-purpose flour. The bread turned out great! It was just as moist and delicious as the regular version.

The only thing I would change about this recipe is to add a little bit more sugar. I found it to be a little bit too tart for my taste.

This bread is perfect for breakfast or a snack. I like to toast it and spread it with butter or jam. It's also delicious served warm with a bowl of soup or chili.

I love the addition of dried fruit in this recipe. It gives the bread a nice chewy texture and a burst of flavor. I used raisins, cranberries, and apricots, but you could use any type of dried fruit you like.
