Oh my! This bread turned out wonderful. I had to make my own buttermilk by adding 1 tbsp of vinegar per cup of milk required for the recipe. My bread came out very soft, has a nice flavour to it and the cereal adds this nice texture. I was actually surprised by the texture, for a quick bread that is. Usually quick breads have this cake-like texture to it but this one was perfect for me. It was also lighter than I thought it would be - definite plus. I cut the slices thick and toasted one, gave it a very heavy slather of peanut butter and raspberry preserves to eat as a snack...Oh gosh! This is now my favourite way to eat PB and jam/preserves. I used to love it on biscuits but with this bread - incredible! Also, don't be disappointed that this bread doesn't rise too high. It is perfect the way it is. Thanks for posting such a great recipe!

very moist and yummy - I made this into 9 mini loaves for Thanksgiving and the bread was amazingly sweet and moist. I did add just a bit less sugar as was suggested and everyone loved it. I added chopped, toasted pecans which made for a nice crunch, and I might even add some dried cranberries to the next batch - great recipe!
