WHOLE-WHEAT FRUIT BREAD
(
Sufficient for Three Small Loaves
)
- 1 yeast cake
- 2 c. lukewarm liquid
- 2 Tb. fat
- 1/4 c. brown sugar stoned, chopped dates
- 2 tsp. salt
- 6 c. whole-wheat flour
- 1-1/2 c. seeded raisins or stoned, chopped dates
- 1 c. white flour for kneading
Dissolve the yeast cake in a little of the lukewarm liquid and add it to the fat, sugar, and salt that have been put into the mixing bowl. Pour in the remainder of the liquid and add half or all of the flour, depending on the bread-making method that is followed. Stir in the fruit before all the flour is added and just before the dough is shaped into loaves. After it has risen sufficiently in the greased pans, proceed with the baking.
78. BRAN BREAD.--Bread in which bran is used is proportionately a trifle lower in food value than that in which whole wheat or white flour is used. However, it has the advantage of an additional amount of bulk in the form of bran, and because of this it is a wholesome food.
