Woodlawn Brown Bread

Ingredients

  • 2 cupfuls sour milk
  • 1 egg
  • 3 cupfuls Graham flour
  • 1 teaspoonful soda
  • 1/2 cupful molasses
  • 1/2 teaspoonful salt

Directions

If the Graham flour is very coarse, sift it and throw away the bran. Add the salt, pour in the molasses, milk, beaten egg, and the soda dissolved in a little water. If you desire bread that is not very dark or sweet, use 2 tablespoonfuls molasses and 1 teaspoonful sugar. Steam for two and a half-hours in pound baking-powder can. Give it three hours if steamed in a quart pail.
