Ingredients

• Serving Size : 1
• 1 teaspoon soda
• 1/2 cup blackstrap molasses
• 1 1/2 cups sour milk or buttermilk (skim)

Method

1. Dissolve soda in molasses, add sour milk and mix well.
2. Mix in bran and raisins.
3. Gradually fold in flour; turn into an 8x4x2 inch loaf pan greased or lined with wax paper, and spread evenly.
4. Bake 45 minutes in a moderate oven (350 degrees F) My variations: I substitute 3/4 cup skim milk + 3/4 cup skim yogurt for the buttermilk.
5. I substitute 1 1/2 cups oatmeal for the bran.
6. Last time I made this, I also added 2 grated carrots, and had nice carrot cake.
7. I also plump the raisins in the microwave with some water.
