These were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out perfectly. They were so light and fluffy. I will definitely be making these again.

These were good, but not great. They were a little dry and the flavor was just okay.

I've made these loaves several times now and they're always a hit. They're so moist and flavorful. I love the addition of the sage.

These were delicious! I made them for a party and everyone loved them. They're really easy to make, too. I'll definitely be making them again.
