Here also is a recipe for "Boston Brown Bread" which is again a very old recipe. I have not personally made this bread but I do remember my mother making it in greased tins, ie. fruit or vegetable tins. Lor
1 cup cornmeal
1 cup rye flour
1 cup graham flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 cup molasses
1 1/2 cups sweet milk
Mix and sift dry ingredients. Mix molasses and milk and add to the dry ingredients. Beat thoroughly and turn into wel-greased moulds, filling about two-thirds full. Cover and steam for 3 hours. Remove the covers and bake the bread long enough to dry it off. Brown bread may be made in greased tins and will require 1 1/2 to 2 hours to steam.
*The recipe does not give oven temperature...I would guess 350 F
