My mom came down on Tuesday afternoon and spent the night. We had a lot of fun with her here. We did some shopping out at Jordan Creek for some spring clothes and then we came home and ate grilled burgers and chicken breasts for supper. Brad was so excited to get back to grilling. It was wonderful! My mom brought a recipe for grapenut bread with her that she has made several times already and the family has just loved it. We made two loaves of it and it was fabulous! Brad told me lastnight that it was almost gone and that I need to make more, so I made two more loaves this morning. Jaxson even liked it, which doesn’t surprise me that much because he loves pretty much any bread. It is very easy. Here’s the recipe.
Mix together in a large bowl: 1/2 cup grapenut cereal, 1 cup buttermilk, 1 cup sugar, and 1 egg.
Then mix together in another bowl: 2 cups flour, 1/2 tsp. baking soda, 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder, and 1/4 tsp. salt. Then mix this into the large bowl.
You can also add 1 tsp vanilla and/or 1/2 tsp. cinnamon if you want to. I’ve put cinnamon in the bread that I’ve made and it’s great.
Bake at 350 for 45-60 minutes.
What kind of pan do you put it in? Loaf pan? Just curious.
