                                          • Contains eggs and wheat (flour).
                                          • To verify bread is done, insert a wooden toothpick into the center of the bread. If wet batter sticks to the toothpick, the bread needs more baking time.
                                          • The symbol indicates the recipe is whole grain-rich.
                                          • Creditable grains contribution calculated using the Recipe Analysis Workbook, Method C.
