- 5 cups flour

Put all ingredients in mixer, mix, and “dump” into 2 loaf pans (or 1 larger baking pan), and cook about 50 minutes at 350 degrees.
Tastes good with just butter on it, warm or cold! This recipe came from Antigonish, Nova Scotia, Canada!

[…] Heat up some olive oil in a dutch oven, chop and cook up your peppers, onion, and garlic for a few minutes and then add your ground sirloin to it. In the meantime, combine all the rest of your ingredients in a bowl, and then add them to a crock pot with the rest of your fully cooked meat sauce mixture, and let it cook for about 1-1/2 hours. I like this on pasta, but I also like it plain with a slice of Little Allan bread and butter for dessert (recipe in link here: https://kitchentabledevotions.com/irish-bread-little-allan-version/) […]
