The bread looks wonderful. I've been wanting something very similar. (lowering voice to a whisper) But, I don't care for maple flavor. Yes, I have made the pilgrimage to VT and I have tasted the real thing. How about substituting honey or golden syrup? Same amounts? Keep up the great work! When I check-in with the Blog I frequently end up daydreaming about how fantastic it would be to work in the test kitchen. Tom Hi Tom, No need to whisper, it's okay to not like certain flavors (says she who doesn't like coffee). The honey or golden syrup would be fine, just keep in mind that the sugar content is not quite the same, so the flavors will be more subtle and the bread may take slightly longer to rise. As for your daydream, we are currently looking for a Baker's Hotline team member. Come on down and check it out! ~ MaryJane
