Caraway, poppy seed, sage and nutmeg give this tender bread its superb flavor. "I received a blue ribbon at our fall festival for this recipe," notes Doris White of De Land, Illinois. "My bread machine makes it convenient to prepare the dough for this loaf—it's light, delicious and the wheat flour makes it extra nutritious."

I finally made this bread after clipping the recipe years ago and I don't know why I waited so long. Not only is this bread delicious, it is actually one of the easiest breads I have ever made. The bread machine does all the kneading and then you let it rise and then bake it and it's done. I thought that I wouldn't like the combination of herbs/spices in this bread, but when baked, they are delicious and not overpowering. Great recipe!!!!
