Fruit Bread Recipes
* # 1: In preparing dainties for the holiday season (and this applies equally well to Thanksgiving), be sure that you have on hand at least a couple of loaves of one of the delicious fruit breads. It is true that these cannot be kept so well or so long as the puddings, mincemeat and cakes, but they are all the better for being nearly a week old, and cut in wafer-like slices and buttered, they are just the thing for children as a substitute for cake or to serve for the holiday supper.
* # 2: For a very good “prune and raisin bread,” mix together one cupful of cornmeal, two cupfuls of graham flour, half a teaspoonful of salt and two rounding teaspoonfuls of baking powder. Have ready half a cupful of chopped raw prunes and a quarter of a cupful of chopped seeded raisins.
Blend this with the flour mixture and moisten with a cupful of milk and half a cupful of molasses, into which has been stirred one-quarter of a teaspoonful of baking soda. Beat the batter well, pour into small molds (well-greased) and steam one and a half hours.
