Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch loaf pan.

  2. Bring raisins and water to a boil in a small saucepan, reduce heat to medium, and boil 5 minutes, set aside to cool.

  3. Mix rolled oats, bran cereal, whole wheat flour, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Mix milk with lemon juice in a small bowl and let stand 1 or 2 minutes to sour. Stir baking soda into sour milk until dissolved. Pour milk mixture into dry ingredients, beat egg into the mixture. Stir raisins and their liquid into the batter. Pour batter into prepared pan.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool in pan for 15 minutes before removing to finish cooling on a wire rack.

Recipe Yield

1 large loaf

Recipe Note

This is a recipe from my great-grandma with simple ingredients. This bread is moist, healthy, and delicious. You can easily cut back on the sugar and switch out ingredients depending on taste or dietary restrictions. I love to use dried cranberries instead of raisins, reducing the sugar by several tablespoons when I do.
