For a richer flavor, try using dark brown sugar instead of light. If you don't have malted barley flour, you can substitute with whole wheat flour, but the flavor will be slightly different. Ensure your warm water is not too hot, as it can kill the yeast. Aim for 105-115°F. This loaf is also delicious when toasted and served with butter and jam.
