Number of Servings:

Ingredients:

  1. 1 envelopes - active dry yeast
  2. 3/4 cups - warm water (105 to 115 degrees F)
  3. 1/3 cups - milk
  4. 1/2 cups - 100% bran cereal
  5. 1 tablespoons - dark brown sugar
  6. 3 tablespoons - honey
  7. 3 tablespoons - butter
  8. 2 teaspoons - salt
  9. 1 - egg
  10. 1 1/2 cups - whole wheat flour
  11. 1 3/4 cups - all-purpose flour
  12. 1 cups - pecan halves
  13. 3/4 cups - raisins

Directions:

Sprinkle yeast over 1/4 cup of warm water; stir until dissolved.

Stir 1/2 cup of water with milk, bran cereal, sugar, honey, butter and salt in a 1-quart saucepan. Heat over low heat until lukewarm (about 95 degrees F). Butter does not need to melt.

Remove from heat; vigorously stir in egg. Add to yeast mixture with whole wheat flour; beat with a wooden spoon until smooth. Stir in 1 cup all-purpose flour, then pecans and raisins. Work in enough flour to make a stiff dough.

Turn out onto a pastry cloth and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Put in a buttered 4-quart bowl; turn to butter top. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a draft-free warm place (about 80 degrees F) until doubled, about 1 hour. Punch down.

Shape into a loaf. Put in a buttered 9-by-5-inch pan. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.

Bake at 400 degrees F for 25 to 30 minutes on the rack below center until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Turn out onto a rack to cool.
