A quick bread, not a yeast bread, another of my longtime favorites adapted from my old Vegetarian Epicure cookbook. Unbelievably delicious spread with butter & honey-also good with cream cheese. Ingredients:
1 cup milk |
2/3 cup honey |
1/4 cup butter |
2 eggs |
1 1/2 cups white flour |
1 cup whole wheat flour |
1 tablespoon baking powder |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup toasted wheat germ |
1 cup walnut halves (optional) or 1 cup walnuts, chunks (optional) |
Directions:
1. Heat milk and honey together until honey is dissolved, then stir in the butter. 2. When the milk-butter mixture is somewhat cooled, beat in the eggs. 3. Sift together the flour through salt; add wheat germ. 4. Gradually stir the dry mixture into the liquid. 5. Stir in nuts (if desired). 6. Turn into 9 X 5-inch loaf pan. 7. Bake at 325°F 1 hour. |
