Recipe: brown bread

[oddharmonic]

After discussing canned brown bread in a thread in baronessvarla's journal, I offered to post my grandmother's recipe for it. It was too long to post as a single comment since I wanted to include the Joy of Cooking recipe as well since my grandmother's recipes have always been spare on details, so I'm posting it here.

You know, I wonder if my mom still has those old coffee tins. She used to have a dozen of them, or so, which she used for the magic she created right after Thanksgiving; Zucchini Bread, Pumpkin Bread, and Banana Bread that she baked in coffee cans. She used the cans because she could get more loaves into the oven at one time, by the way. She could easily get 10 cans in, where she'd be pressed to get even 6 regular loaves in and still have good air circulation. She used to be quite the real life Betty Crocker/June Cleaver
