Great-Grandma's Health Bread image

This is a recipe from my great-grandma with simple ingredients. This bread is moist, healthy, and delicious. You can easily cut back on the sugar and switch out ingredients depending on taste or dietary restrictions. I love to use dried cranberries instead of raisins, reducing the sugar by several tablespoons when I do.

Time 2h5m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup raisins
1 cup water
2 cups rolled oats
1 cup bran cereal (such as Kellogg's® All-Bran®)
1 cup whole wheat flour
¾ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup milk
1 ½ teaspoons lemon juice
1 egg

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch loaf pan.
  • Bring raisins and water to a boil in a small saucepan, reduce heat to medium, and boil 5 minutes; set aside to cool.
  • Mix rolled oats, bran cereal, whole wheat flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Mix milk with lemon juice in a small bowl and let stand 1 or 2 minutes to sour. Stir baking soda into sour milk until dissolved. Pour milk mixture into dry ingredients; beat egg into the mixture. Stir raisins and their liquid into the batter. Pour batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool in pan for 15 minutes before removing to finish cooling on a wire rack.

This bread is a bit too dense for my taste. I think it needs more water or milk to make it lighter.
