This bread is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time. Otherwise, it's a good recipe and the bread is very moist.

This bread is a bit dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding a bit more butter or oil next time. Otherwise, it's a good recipe and the flavor is great.

This bread is really easy to make and it turned out great! The only thing I would change is to add a bit more amaretto flavor. Maybe I'll try adding a tablespoon of amaretto extract next time.
