Do not put the salt in. I did and they were too salty. Otherwise it was a good recipe

I made these gluten and dairy free by using Kind Arthurs gluten free all purpose flour, swapping out dairy free milk and vinegar for the buttermilk and i just made a simple confectioners sugar and water drizzle for the topping. My family LOVED these, even those dont need to eat gluten/dairy free. Thanks for the great recipe!

This is an addendum to my previous comment, since I forgot to give it a star rating. Also, I left out a word; meant to say that THIS recipe has the taste and texture more like a quick bread. (Starbucks more like a cake.)

This bread is delicious! My friend told me about the Starbucks version, which I tried, and then I looked to see if I could find a similar recipe online. I made this and then did a side-by-side comparison, and I think this is actually better! The Starbucks loaf tastes very cakey, sweeter, while has the flavor and texture more like a quick bread. Plus, the Starbucks version has much less pistachio on top. I followed the recipe to the letter, and the only thing I had to do differently was bake it longer. You have to test quick breads with a toothpick in the center. If the bread starts being too brown before the center is done, cover it with foil and keep baking. Thank you for this terrific recipe! A new taste treat!

Comment on The BEST Easy Fried Rice by Julie Kremer

Great recipe! I made it because I had left over rice. I added chopped broccoli (in small pieces), a little ground chilli and a little honey. My family loved it and finished it all. I will be making it again. Very easy to customise to the vegetables you have on hand.
