Instructions: This one has a few more changes in ingredients, but it was a good one to try because the original made 3 pounds of bread. I wanted to add more fiber, so I substituted whole wheat flour and wheat germ for some of the white flour. By using only 3/4 cup of WW flour, I left room in the machine for the shredded wheat, gluten flour, and wheat germ. I used slightly more than half the original amount of honey, but omitted the sugar. The amount of butter is slightly more than half the original amount because I like the flavor and texture it gives, but you could reduce it to 1 1/2 tablespoons if you like. The first time I made this in the machine, I had to increase the amount of water slightly, so the machine recipe has a bit more than half as much water as the original.

These have become two of our favorite breads in the machine. I make them more often now than in the past, because both were rather sticky and difficult to handle when made by hand. Converting your "old favorites" is definitely worth the effort!
