It's hard to get a good whole-grain bread where I live, so my bread machine comes in very handy when making this hearty loaf. I adapted it from an old recipe, and I've been enjoying it ever since. Cornmeal and wheat germ give it a wonderful texture and nutty flavor I love. -Michele MacKinlay, Madoc, Ontario

Two pieses of toast is breakfast as this bread is so hearty . I used milled flax seed instead of the wheat germ and this bread was terrific!!! I have been making bread for 30 years and this recipe now tops my list

as favorite.

Nice flavor and texture - fragrance and mouth feel remind me of a lighter version of Boston brown bread (due to the molasses and cornmeal). Hearty but not heavy. I made this by hand rather than use a machine and baked it in a 9x5 inch pan, came out great. Takes a while to rise but be patient, it's worth the wait!

I'd like to make the multigrain bread, but the recipe calls for a bread machine and I do not own one. Do I go ahead and make it like I would my basic white bread?
