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.
