This bread is AWESOME! I use fresh limes but you can use the bottled juice if you prefer, it does not have to be "key Lime". Wonderful with a nice cup of hot tea or coffee.

Followed the recipe exactly and the bread turned out dense and dry. Not sure what went wrong.

This key lime bread is incredibly moist and flavorful! The citrusy tang from the lime zest and juice is perfectly balanced by the sweetness of the sugar and honey. I also love the crunch from the nuts. Will definitely be making this again!
