A delightful and healthier take on a classic molasses bread, perfect for any occasion.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even baking from the start.
Grease and lightly flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
Use parchment paper for easier removal.
In a mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, salt, baking soda, and brown sugar.
Sifting the dry ingredients can help avoid lumps.
Add the molasses and buttermilk to the dry ingredients and mix gently until just combined.
Avoid overmixing to keep the bread tender.
Fold in the raisins evenly throughout the batter.
Coating the raisins in flour can prevent them from sinking.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and let it sit for 5 minutes.
Resting allows the batter to settle evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Check the bread at 50 minutes to avoid overbaking.
Cool the bread in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cooling on a rack prevents the bottom from becoming soggy.
Slice and serve the bread as desired.
Serve with a spread of butter or jam for added flavor.
