Ingredients
  

Dry ingredients

  • 2 cups wheat flour
  • 2 cups white flour
  • 2 cups quick oats
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup powdered milk
  • 2 tsps. baking powder
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. nutmeg
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon

Wet ingredienta

  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 3/4 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup molasses
  • 3/4 cup oil

Mix-Ins

  • 1 1/2 cups sliced almonds
  • 1 1/2 cups dried cranberries
  • 1 1/2 cups dRK CHOCOLATE CHIPS

Instructions
 

  • Mix all dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl. I used a 4-quart mixing bowl, and it was just large enough to mix everything together without making a big mess. Make sure it's well-mixed.
  • Mix your wet ingredients in a separate bowl. I used an 8-cup mixing bowl.
  • Add your wet ingredients to your dry ingredients, and mix it until it creates a thick batter. It will look more like cookie batter than bread mix. It smells and tastes delicious already!
  • Once your batter is evenly mixed, you can fold in your mix-ins.
  • Spread your batter evenly into a greased pan. I used a 2-quart Pyrex dish, but you could use a 9 x 13 pan or even two loaf pans if you prefer.
  • Bake at 300 degrees for approximately an hour. My glass dish took a little bit longer.
  • Cut your logan bread into squares while it is warm.
  • If you choose, you can return your bread to the oven on the lowest setting with the door slightly open. This will dry out your bread even more to make it last longer, which is better for hiking. Or serve it warm for a delicious treat.
