    Coffee Can Bread

    List of Ingredients




    Marlboro Country Cookbook, Morning Fires, Evening Lights

    Coffee Can Bread
    ================
    1 Cup graham or whole wheat flour
    1-1/2 Cups all-purpose flour
    1 Cup cornmeal
    3 Teaspoons baking powder
    1-1/2 Teaspoons baking soda
    1/2 Teaspoon salt
    1-3/4 Cups buttermilk
    3/4 Cup molasses
    1 Cup raisins and/or chopped walnuts

    Recipe



    Combine the two flours, cornmeal, baking powder, soda and salt in a mixing bowl. Mix buttermilk and molasses; add to dry ingredients and mix well.

    Stir in raisins and nuts. Pour into 3 well greased 13 ounce coffee cans filling 2 inches from top. Bread may also be baked in 2 greased 8-inch loaf pans. Cover cans or loaf pans with aluminum foil. Bake in a 350ºF oven 45-60 minutes. Cool slightly before turning out of cans.

    *Don't settle for ordinary raisins, soak them overnight in brandy. The raisins - and the liquid- may be added to the dough; make sure to allow for the extra liquid in the recipe.
