Maple Walnut Bread
Ingredients:
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
1 cup 100% White Whole Wheat Flour
1/4 cup dried buttermilk powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons non-disatatic malt powder
1 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
1 teaspoon maple flavor powder
1/2 cup maple syrup
3/4 cup water
Directions:
Yield: 12 slices.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together all of the dry ingredients until well-blended. Stir the maple syrup into the water, and combine the wet and dry ingredients, mixing just until everything is moistened.
Butter or grease the inside of your 1-pound steamer pan. Spoon the batter into the pan, and cover it with a piece of greased aluminum foil. Put 2 to 3 inches of water in a covered saucepan taller than your steamer pan, and place the steamer in the saucepan. Bring the water to a simmer. Cover the pan, and simmer the bread for 3 hours, replenishing with additional simmering water as needed, until the bread is done (a cake tester inserted into the center will come out clean).
Remove the pan from the saucepan, allow it to cool for 30 minutes, then turn the bread out to cool completely. For best texture and flavor, let rest overnight before serving.
