water to make the 1 3/4 cup measure.
If you do not have all the different kinds of flour, use what you do
have to make 3 1/4 cups, or try 1/4 cup wheat germ or bran plus 3 cups
all-purpose flour. Make a note of the ingredients and a note of the
result.
Sugar could possibly be left out, especially if 2 tbsp. or more of
raisins (or finely chopped dates) are used.
Combine dry ingredients in a bowl. Cut in margarine or oil. Stir in
raisins (if using) and add buttermilk or sour milk to make a soft
dough.
Knead lightly on a floured surface until smooth. Place on a greased
baking sheet and flatten into a circle about 2 1/2 inches thick. Cut
large X about 1/4 inch deep on top. OR make 2 smaller loaves.
Bake at 350 F for about 1 hour or until toothpick inserted in the
center comes out clean.
