I love baking loaves.. There is nothing quite like a fresh warm delicious loaf and I love making them weight watcher friendly.. Although it is spring this honey spice loaf reminded me of a cool fall day and sometimes I feel spring mornings have that same feel in the air.. The smell will win you over and it tastes better than it smells.. Makes 10 generous servings at 4 points each.

Made this last night and it was so easy - made a great after dinner snack with a little applesauce or small scoop of WW friendly ice cream!

I need to make this. Time to dig out my bread pans!! Does this make a regular, full sized loaf? It must... it's 10 "generous" servings... ????

Sally
Could these be made as muffins? I don't have a loaf pan!????

Can u suggest a easy crumble top? We are allergic to nuts!
Drizzle
An easy crumble top I use on muffins is 2Tbsp sugar and 2.5 Tbsp flour, mix.. then stir in 3/4 Tbsp melted light butter until a crumb forms.. you could also try just sprinkling on a bit of brown sugar
