Honey and Walnut Bread

This mouth watering Honey and Walnut Bread serves 12 so if you’re serving toast at a breakfast or taking a slice for brunch, you’ll be fuller for longer and feeling great. This bread is sweet and nutty at the same time. Using slightly toasted walnuts in the mixture, adds a new texture and flavour to the mix. honey and Walnut Bread is a simple bread that takes only 30 minutes to cook. I serve this with a soft poached egg for brunch with asparagus and a few rashers of smoked bacon. This has become one of my families favourites rather than the shop brought versions.
