This is my mother-in-laws famous brown bread recipe. We find these rolls at every family gathering! I reach for this recipe over and over again when we are craving bread for it has so few ingredients and so easy to make. My kids make a meal out of it in the mornings especially when they get to slather their own homemade strawberry jam over the top! Makes 3 loaves or 48 rolls

This bread is a great make-ahead breakfast or snack. I love to toast it and spread it with butter and jam.

I've tried several brown bread recipes and this one is by far the best. It's the perfect combination of moist and dense.

I followed the recipe exactly and my bread turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I made this bread yesterday and it was delicious! The crust was crispy and the inside was soft and fluffy. I used honey instead of sugar and it turned out great. I will definitely be making this again.

This brown bread is a keeper! It's so moist and flavorful, and it has a beautiful golden crust. I love that it's made with whole wheat flour, so it's a healthier option than white bread. I'll definitely be making this again and again.
