Ester Robbins White's walnut bread




Source of Recipe


recipe is from Ester Robbins White, who lived in the early 1900s in Turkey with her husband and children, George, Margaret, Ester, and Katy.
Sift two cups of flour, mix with half cup sugar, two teaspoons baking powder, and one teaspoon salt. Add an egg yolk, a cup of milk, two tablespoons melted butter, and a half cup chopped walnuts. Beat thoroughly. Bake 45 minutes at 350 degrees. One can use equal parts whole wheat and white flower, and brown sugar can be substituted for white if desired. For variation, add a tablespoon of grated orange peel and a half cup of orange marmalade instead of sure, reducing milk to half a cup.
