Yield Makes 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tablespoon butter plus more for serving, room temperature
2 cups whole milk
1/2 cup mild-flavored (light) molasses
1/4 cup (packed) light brown sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup rye flour
1/3 cup cornmeal
1 tablespoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup raisins (optional)
Ingredient info: Rye flour is available at natural foods stores and some supermarkets.
Special Equipment
Two empty, clean 11-13-ounce coffee cans

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Cut two 6" squares of foil. Coat insides of cans and one side of foil squares with 1 tablespoon butter. Stir milk and next 3 ingredients in a small saucepan over low heat until sugar dissolves and mixture is just warmed (do not boil). Whisk whole wheat flour and next 5 ingredients in a large bowl. Add milk mixture; whisk until smooth. Fold in raisins, if using. Divide batter between cans. Smooth tops.
  • Cover cans with foil, butter side down. Secure foil with kitchen twine. Place cans foil side up in a deep roasting pan or a heavy shallow pot. Transfer pan to oven. Pour very hot water into pan to come about 3" up sides of cans.
  • Bake until a skewer inserted through foil into the center of each loaf comes out clean, about 1 1/2 hours. Transfer to a wire rack. Let cool for 10 minutes. Run a thin knife around edges of cans. Invert to release loaves onto rack. Let cool completely. DO AHEAD: Bread can be made 3 days ahead. Wrap tightly in plastic; store at room temperature.
  • Slice bread. Serve with soft butter.

I was hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of raisins, but I'm so glad I did! The raisins add a wonderful sweetness and texture to the bread, and they're not overpowering at all. This bread is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack
