how to make steam brown bread

Mix all ingredients together in a bowl.

spray a pan or metal cans (we use tomatao juice cans) with cooking spray. Pour in mixture until cans are half full. Cover tops with tinfoil.

Place covered cans in a large pot and add hot water. Approximately halfway up the cans inside. Any more and cans will float. Cover pot with a lid and bring to a boil. Boil for 1 hour. Do not remove lid unless you must add more water. If more water is required stop the timer until a boil is once again reached.

After the 1 hour, Remove cans and remove the tinfoil. Bread should be rounded at the top, and a knife should come out clean. Once bread has cooled for approximately 15 minutes turn cans upside down and slide out loaf of bread. Allow to cool a bit before slicing.
