This recipe is awesome! The simplicity of the taste and the softness of the inside of these 2 loaves are amazing! I usually eat it as is and without any spread. It tastes really good but if you feel like adding more, try adding peanut butter on top. It’s really good too. Give this one a try and enjoy!
