Graham Bread
- 4 ounces wheat flour
- 2 ounces molasses
- 1/2 cup yeast
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 pint warm water
- Graham flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
Mix all of the ingredients, except for baking soda. Add enough Graham flour to make the dough as stiff as can be stirred with a strong spoon. This is to be mixed at night. When you awake the next day, add the baking soda, dissolved in a little water. Mix completely. Then pour into 2 medium-sized pans. They will be about half full. Let it stand in a warm location until it rises to the top of the pans. Bake with love for approximately an hour in a pretty hot oven at 375 degrees F.
This should be covered for about 20 minutes when first put into the oven with a thick brown paper or a tin cover. It prevents the upper crust from hardening before the loaf is well risen. If the directions are correctly followed, the bread will not be heavy.
