This bread was a bit bland. I think I'll try adding more spices next time, maybe some cinnamon or nutmeg.

This bread was a bit dry. I think I'll try adding more moisture next time, maybe some applesauce or mashed bananas.

This bread was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
