Review

I did this but with white flour. A very heavy loaf and I had to cut it quite thick. Too heavy for me.  I froze a few slices, putting a couple of slices  in each bag, and used over time.
Handy to have something like this for a quick eat, especially for breakfast, but if its thick then the butter doesn't penetrate too far and it ends up being quite dry.
I may try another recipe in winter when this will certainly be appreciated.
