Oatmeal Molasses Bread
I found this recipe in a 1956 Betty Crocker's PICTURE COOK BOOK that I found for $.25 at a garage sale last summer. It has some great casserole and cakes recipes as well as yeast bread recipes like this one. I love this recipe since the dough requires no kneading and it only requires one rising. It is very quick for a yeast bread recipe. The results are a very moist and nice dark colored loaf. We made egg salad sandwiches for lunch using this bread.
