"This moist loaf is one of my very best quick bread recipes. I like to serve slices accompanied by individual ramekins filled with extra virgin olive oil infused with herbs for dipping," says Dianne Culley of Nesbit, Mississippi.

WOW this is an awesome recipe. It's probably the best bread for dipping in olive oil and Italian herbs that I've ever had. And it was super easy to make. I'd give it more than five stars if I could. It does make a small loaf, as noted.

The best quick bread ever! I lost this recipe and just found it again! It is great as a side to any home made soup! Superb!

This bread was really great I really enjoyed it. I am glad to get this recipe because you could use this as a basic recipe and use different seasonings.

This loaf was very easy to make and very delicious. My family just loved it. One loaf is not enough for 4 people, need to make 2 loaves.

This loaf is so easy. We absolutely loved the flavors. Just one comment though, this loaf is fairly small so if your husbands a big eater like mine consider this 2 or 3 servings not 4.
