This is really incredible bread, Shanna. The first time I made it, I used white flour and walnuts (I had no pecans). My hubby ate it all (except for one slice that I hoarded), then asked for more. I just made a second batch and doubled it -- but this time I used whole wheat flour and raisins (I was totally out of nuts) -- oh, and I also ran out of oatmeal.
We had a taste test, using the one slice of the first batch that I hoarded. The results are mixed; we disagreed completely. He's just WRONG, that's all!
It's not a fair taste test, though, to be fair, because my hubby hates nuts. However, while I don't think it makes any difference in the taste between the white flour and the whole wheat, I do think it needs the nuts, and pecans are sweeter than walnuts, so I'm gonna go for the pecans next time. Don will have to suffer.
Thanks! Bev
