Nut Bread #2

 
 

 

 

Sometimes Aunt Pit didn't tell us the exact oven temperatures. Here's a cheat sheet.
Cool oven 250°F
Slow oven 250–350°F
Moderate oven 350–375°F
Hot oven 375–450°F

4 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup walnuts (chopped)
1 1/2 cup milk
1 egg
4 teaspoons B.P. [baking powder]
1 teaspoon salt

Put in pan to raise 20 minutes

Bake in slow oven 40 minutes.

 

Quick breads are leavened without the use of yeast. In case Aunt Pit's recipe is a bit vague, here are basic directions:

Preheat oven to 350°.
Combine dry ingredients.
Combine wet ingredients.
Stir into dry ingredients.
Grease the bottom of a loaf pan and pour in the batter.
Bake about 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Cool 10 minutes before removing from pan.
