IN A  MEDIUM SIZED BOWL PUT:

2 cups of quick or regular Oatmeal 

3 (1 package)  large Shredded Wheat Biscuits - Original 

Here in New England we call them "Bales of Hay"

1/2 cup of Grapenuts Cereal (I use Post)

Cover the cereal with 4 Cups of Boiling Water & Let set for about 15-20 minutes

Stir occasionally to help it cool down quicker and mix the cereals.

IN A FAIRLY GOOD SIZED BOWL (as you need plenty of room to stir):

Dissolve;

3 TABLESPOONS OF YEAST

1 TEASPOON WHITE SUGAR - POUR OVER FIRST TWO INGREDIENTS

1 CUP OF HOT **TAP WATER. Swirl bowl around gently to help evenly dissolve the yeast and sugar. 

ADD IN ORDER:

1 cup of White Flour, then the Cereal Mixture

1/2 Cup each of Brown Sugar & Molasses

5 (more) Cups of White Flour 

1 Tablespoon Salt

Mix by hand with a large sturdy spoon until well mixed about 15-18 good turns.

Generously spread on your kitchen counter or board with about 1 scant Cup of Flour.

Dump bread in the center, with a spatula type counter scraper gently, but firmly knead flour and bread dough in unison, turning it over and over. If it starts to stick too much dust a little more flour into wet spot. Dough will be a little tacky, so don't panic. Put dough into large greased bowl turning your big "blob" over! 

Cover loosely with light towel and let rise 1 Hour free from direct drafts.

Turn out on floured counter again, roll with hands into long log, cut into 3 equal portions. Tuck each portion under and over working working it towards the center to form a log, put them into 3 greased bread pans. Cover let rise about 45-50 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat over to 400 degrees  when you put the bread in, turn it back to 350 degrees and bake for 38 minutes.

Remove immediately from pans onto cooling wracks and spray or brush tops with oil or butter. It's delicious, good for you and is very hearty.
