Quick Graham Bread

⁽¹⁾

This is a fantastic recipe, I've made it many times. It results in a bread with a similar texture to corn bread but wheaty / grahammy tasting. Slighty sweet so a good breakfast bread, but not too sweet to eat with dinner. I've found you can substitute vegetable oil for the shortening without changing the result much except that the thinner batter makes a smoother crust (cutting back slightly on the liquid will give the same craggy crust that the shortening version produces). I've also substituted buttermilk for the milk with good result.
