Whole wheat & oak bran bread
Yield: 20 Servings -J
Ingredients:
- 2 Eggs
- 1/2 c Oil
- 1 c Buttermilk
- 1/2 c Brown sugar
- 1/2 c Molasses
- 1 1/3 c Whole wheat flour
- 1 c Flour
- 3/4 c Oat bran flakes
- 2 ts Baking powder
- 1 ts Baking soda
- 2 ts Cinnamon
- 1 c Dates; chopped
- 1 c Walnuts; chopped
Instructions:
Beat together first 5 ingredients until blended. Mix together the remaining ingredients and add all at once. Beat until blended. Do not overbeat. Divide batter between 5 greased mini-loaf pans (6x3x2-inches) and bake in a 350 degree oven for about 45 minutes or until a cake tester inserted in center comes out clean. Allow to cool in pan for 10 minutes and then remove from pans and continue cooling on a rack. Yields: 5 mini-loaves. Note: Oat bran can be purchased in most supermarkets or health food stores. It comes as "milled" or "stone-ground". The milled is finer in texture and the stone-ground will produce a slightly coarser crumb which adds a little character to this country-style loaf.
