Looks beautiful!
Thanks so much Gloria! Hope you love it!
I do not use stevia what and how much can I supstitute that with?
It substitutes just like sugar – same measurements, same amount! 🙂
So if I don’t use the raw sugar, I will use 2 1/2 cups of regular sugar, correct?
Correct. If you want two loaves.
You stated you used regular sugar for the topping, but the recipe calls for Steviia for that. Which did you use?
It’s Sugar in the raw which is just raw/regular sugar. It’s the brand name ????
Looks and sounds wonderful. Years ago I made “Friendship Bread”, used with a starter from a friend, but you added peaches, cherries and the nuts. Could this be added to yours or do you know of this recipe?
What are the actual measurements for the bread starter. I’d like to make that to pass out with this recipe.
Thank you!
I live in a small community in NL Canada…is this product sold in Canada?
My husband is diabetic. Can I use 2 1/2 cups of Stevia in The Raw?
May be a silly question, but when the recipe calls for the pudding – are you adding prepared pudding, or simply the powder from the box?
Powder from the box!
Can I use low fat butter milk?
Can you freeze the bread then thaw it when you want to use it? Will it taste okay after it thaws?
Do you have to use buttermilk? Can almond milk be used instead? I’ve read other recipes that use regular or nonfat milk.
That seems like a huge amount of baking powder – 1 Tablespoon? Is this correct?
