Treacle brown bread

  by Gavin Bennett
Preperation time: 10 mins
Cooking time: 2 hours
Serves: 8

Recipe Ingredients
75g black treacle;
225g strong wholemeal flour, sifted;
75g currants;
225ml milk;
1/2 tsp salt;
1 tsp bicarbonate of soda.
 
Recipe Method
Put the flour, currants, bicarbonate of soda and salt in a large bowl, mix and make a well.

Add the milk and treacle and mix well. Pour mixture into a greased 450g loaf tin. Cover with foil (but not too tight so the bread cant rise). Put the loaf tin on a deep baking tray and add boiling water to the tray until the water is halfway up the loaf tin.

Cook for 2 hours at about 170c. Allow to cool before removing the bread from the loaf tin.
