So can I affect the colour by by using cinnamon? make a herby loaf by adding mixed herbs/ bay/mint etc?

You can, but ... cinnamon? yuk

Dried herbs are good, as are some finely chopped chillies or sundried tomatoes, or olives.

I don't like "white" bread, myself. I make my loaves 50/50 wholemeal and white - they are light but with a bit of goodness still in them.

(TOP TIP: if you make cheese & onion bread, and then freeze it - do make sure to label it, because it's not very nice with marmalade on)

Hi. I use a bread maker every day and I use olive oil instead of butter, no milk and honey instead of sugar. It tastes yummy

I once made a 'cherry and almond' loaf (leftovers from Christmas cake, glace cherries and blanched almonds), sliced it and froze it. Remarkably nice!
