This fun recipe for Mother’s Day Message Honey Wheat Bread is a sponsored post on behalf of ACH brands. #BecomeABetterBaker

I always try and think of something that I can make for my mom every year for Mother’s Day.  She’s a busy grandmother of 7 now and she deserves all the pampering we can give her.  One thing that I know my mom loves is bread.  I made this Mother’s Day Message Honey Wheat Bread with her in mind!  It’s such a fun way to celebrate Mother’s Day and your mom will be surprised to see “Mom” written on it!

To write the message on the bread I used a biscuit-like mixture on top of the bread before baking.  It really worked out well and I love how it turned out!

To get the deep brown color on the bread I used a little brown food coloring.  You can also use caramel color if you want too.

The ingredients are really simple and I used Fleischmann’s^® Yeast for the best result.  I use Fleischmann’s^® RapidRise™ Yeast when baking bread and I am always impressed with the results!  It makes bread baking a cinch!

Of course the most important part was the taste of the bread.  This bread reminded me of steakhouse bread… very light, slightly sweet and perfect with butter!  I know my mom will love this bread.  I hope yours does, too!
