This bread is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it is still very good. I would recommend reducing the amount of sugar in the recipe if you prefer a less sweet bread.

This bread is very good, but it is not as moist as I would like it to be. I will try adding a little bit more milk to the batter next time.
