Time 4h15m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 ¼ cups boiling water
3 large shredded wheat cereal biscuits
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons shortening
½ cup molasses
1 (0.6 ounce) cake compressed fresh yeast
¼ cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
8 ¼ cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, pour the boiling water over the biscuits Stir in salt, shortening and molasses. Cool to lukewarm.
  • In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add this to the lukewarm biscuit mixture. Stir in the flour, 1 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and supple, about 8 minutes. Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 2 hours.
  • Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into three equal pieces and form into loaves. Place the loaves into two lightly greased 9x5 inch loaf pans. Brush tops of loaves with 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Cover the loaves with a damp cloth and let rise until doubled in volume, about 1 hour. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes, until bottom of loaves sound hollow when tapped.

This is a great recipe! I've made it several times and it's always a hit. The bread is moist and flavorful, and the cereal adds a nice crunch. I've used different cereals each time, and it's always turned out great.

I was hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of cereal in baked goods, but I'm glad I did! The bread was surprisingly moist and flavorful. I used Fruity Pebbles and it gave the bread a nice sweetness and crunch.

This bread is a great way to use up leftover cereal. I used a mix of Corn Flakes, Rice Krispies, and Shredded Wheat. The bread was moist and flavorful, and the cereal added a nice crunch.

This bread is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a less sugary cereal.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The bread was dry and crumbly. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.
