Whole Wheat Batter Bread

Makes: 2 loaves

6 cups whole wheat flour
        (or use 3 cups whole wheat & 3 cups white)
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 Tablespoon salt
5 teaspoons dry yeast
3 1/4 cups warm water
(2/3 cups raisins or dates - optional)


In a large bowl mix all the dry ingredients together (along with the fruit, if you are using it).

Add the water and beat the mixture to make a nice thick batter.

Pour it into 2 greased loaf pans and smooth out the tops.

Cover the pans with greased plastic wrap and let it rise until doubled in volume.

Bake at 400º for about 45 minutes. The loaves will sound hollow when thumped with your finger.

Remove from the pans and cool on a rack before slicing.

Note: This bread is not kneaded.
