I love making bread, and you can't go wrong with this recipe. These tender, golden brown loaves have a great combination of seasonings on top that make them go well with pretty much any meal or sliced for sandwiches. -Traci Wynne, Denver, Pennsylvania

FIVE TOPPING BREAD

Another recipe I found in my Taste of Home Magazine that I want to save until I can try it. Comment on the recipe states "tender, golden brown loaves with a great combination of seasonings sprinkled on top that make them go well with pretty much any meal or cut slices for sandwiches. Sounds good to me! Preparation time does not include rising. Finally got around to making this and the taste is so good, a very slight sweet flavor set off by the salty seed topping. As Annacia noted in her review it didn't rise as much as I'd like so wonderfing if next time I'd try it with bread flour for more glutin. Not sure but worth a try. At any rate the flavor was terrific.
