This is an old family favorite, which is a take-off on soda bread. I like to serve it with soup. It's also good as a snack, served with Irish breakfast tea. Ingredients:
3 cups whole wheat flour |
3/4 cup all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk |
1 tablespoon honey |
1/2 cup raisins |
1/2 cup chopped nuts |
Directions:
1. Mix together the dry ingredients, in a large bowl. 2. Stir in evaporated milk, honey and the raisins and nuts; mix until the dough holds together. 3. Knead briefly (2 to 3 minutes) on a floured boad, until velvety; then form into a flattened round loaf and place on a greased baking sheet. 4. Brush with water, cut a ctoss on top with a sharp, floured knife. 5. Bake at 375 degrees F for 35 to 40 minutes, until browned. 6. Cool on rack, slice thinly; Yields approximately 16 slices. |
