Bread (Table) - Colonial Brown Bread

A little about categorizing bread. Our system is not scientific by a long shot. We've placed them into table, flat, dessert, and fried. Table bread may include loaves of sandwich-type bread or something designed to serve as a loaf or dinner bun at the table. Flat is generally un-yeasted bread that is flat (duh!). Fried can be pan-fried or deep-fried. Dessert is for delectables such as banana bread. The words dressing and stuffing are interchangeable, depending where you live. Many will contain bread, others may not. This is dizzying.

Bread (Table) - Colonial Brown Bread

Post by Chowhound »

4 cups buttermilk
4 cups whole wheat flour
1 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup packed brown sugar
4 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9x5 inch loaf pans. In a large bowl, stir together the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt. Pour in buttermilk, and stir until all of the dry mixture has been absorbed. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared loaf pans. Bake for 1 hour in the preheated oven, or until a knife inserted into the crown of the loaf comes out clean. Serve warm. Store leftover bread wrapped in plastic wrap in the refrigerator. This reheats well.
