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.
