I thought I would write to you and tell you about a wonderful recipe book we have, as well as a recipe for St. Elizabeth Ann Seton which my family enjoys. The cookbook is Building the Family Cookbook by Suzanne Fowler. Here is the recipe:
St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Colonial Brown Bread
need a greased 9 X 5 loaf pan
2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 c. + 3 T flour
1 c. brown sugar, packed
2 t. baking soda
2 c. buttermilk
Mix all dry ingredients. Slowly add the buttermilk, stirring until well blended. Pour into a greased 9 X 5 loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees for one hour.
Turn pan at once and cool on a wire rack. The bread may be eaten warm. Turn the bread on the side for easier slicing.
Variations: I use all whole wheat flour and turbinado sugar.
Cautions: Don't use any other type of flour. I used whole wheat pastry flour once and it didn't turn out near as good. Edible but not great! Pin It
Is the second amount of flour (1/2 C. + 3T.) also supposed to be whole wheat? Thanks!

ReplyDeleteAs my second son's name is Seton, we decided to have "Mother Seton Sugar Cookies" for his name day treat. I As you can see from the pictures, it doesn't take much to get him excited. :) I do think we may be trying this bread soon though.
