Once you prepare this dish you will never again buy brown bread in a can at the supermarket"

INGREDIENTS:

 

2 small loaves about 12 slices
1 cup unsifted whole wheat flour
1 cup unsifted rye flour
1 cup yellow corn meal
1 1/2 teaspoons Baking soda
1 teaspoon Salt
1/3 cup Kal nutritional yeast optional
3/4 cup molasses (I use honey, sorghum syrup, molasses or blend)
2 cups buttermilk
1/2 cup raisins , currants, dried blueberries or cranberries moistened and drain.

  • DIRECTIONS:

  •  
  • Place all the dry ingredients in your electric mixing bowl and mix well with your machine.

     

    Add the liquid ingredients and blend well.

     

    Grease three 1-pound coffee cans or large fruit-juice cans and place 1/3 of the batter in each.

     

    Cover each with wax paper and then aluminum foil. Tie each with a bit of string so that the foil is sealed.

     

    Place a cake rack in the bottom of a large soup pot and place the cans on the rack. Add enough boiling water to come 1/3 up the side of the cans. Cover the pot and bring it to a boil.

     

    Turn the heat down and simmer the cans for about 2-1/2 hours. Check the water level now and then as you will need to add more water.

     

    Remove the cans from the kettle and allow to cool just a bit. Take out the bread and serve sliced with butter. It is best hot.
