2 cakes granular yeast
1/2 c. shortening (I used Crisco)
4 tsp. salt
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/3 c. dark molasses
2 c. scalding water & 2 cans or 2 c. canned milk or 4 c. hot milk
2 c. oatmeal
1 c. all bran & let set a few minutes
Flour enough to make a med. stiff dough (approx. 8 or 9 c. white flour)

Put the yeast in 1/2 cup of warm water with 1/2 teaspoon of sugar dissolved in it. Now add the ingredients as given -- when too thick to stir, put on board and finish kneading in the flour.

Put in a greased bowl to rise, when double in size, punch down and make into 4 loaves. When dough has risen above an inch or more, bake about 45 to 60 minutes at 375 degrees for first 20 minutes; then at 350 degrees for the balance of the time.

When done, remove from oven and turn on a towel right side up until cool. I grease the top of loaves with butter and cover with slightly damp cloth until cool.
