Steamed Brown Bread

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Mix the dry ingredients together, add the molasses and water.
  2. If dry skim milk is available, mix 1 cup with the dry ingredients.
  3. Beat the mixture thoroughly, and pour into greased molds until they are about 3/4 full.
  4. Cover loosely to keep out the moisture, and steam for 3-1/2 hours.
  5. Remove the covers and bake the bread in a moderate oven for about 10 minutes to dry it off.
  6. If the bread seems likely to crumble, loop a string around the loaf and cut slices by pulling the ends of the string.
