Hobo Bread

Wash three No. 3 cans or four “soup cans” very well. Dry. Grease.

Mix together in bowl and let stand until cool:

• 1½ cups raisins
• 2 tbsp. butter
• 1 cup boiling water

In another bowl, mix together:

• 1 beaten egg
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 tsp. vanilla

Add egg-sugar mixture to raisins and water.

Mix together:

• 2 cups sifted flour
• 1 tsp. soda
• pinch of salt

Add flour mixture to other bowl and mix. Fill greased cans one-half full. Bake in 350 degrees oven for 30 minutes. Bread is done when you insert a toothpick into center and it comes out clean. Wait 10 minutes before removing from can. Lay bread on its side and slice into thin rounds. Spread with butter, peanut butter or jelly. Or, make a cheese sandwich. Serve with a glass of milk or a cup of cocoa.
