This is a recipe that I've had for years and years. I know some will
quibble about not steaming, wrong name and objection to using cans.
Whatever. It is still a tasty and nutritious bread.

Boston Brown Bread
2 cups graham or whole wheat flour
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups buttermilk
1/2 cup molasses
1 cup seedless raisins
Combine all ingredients; mix well. Spoon into 3 well-greased 1-pound
cans (I use 2 one-pound coffee cans and it works fine). Let stand 1/2
hour. Bake at 350F for 45-50 minutes or until cake tester comes out
clean.

It's not brain surgery. Use the one you like best. I only have
unsulphured in the cupboards, so that's what I'd use.
