Was the hot word back in the mid to late 70s

many bakeries wanted to jump in the trend of the day and not miss out on the starting of a new market.  Trend seems to live here as i am seeing more and more posts about multy grain breads.

well in those days i was called in to do R & D to develop such products.  The problem  getting a product that will meet the requirments of being multi grain (granola) but tasting good enough to get someone to come back and buy it over and over again

below is the formula that was deloped for granola bread (it is a small shop formula. since many of the members here know me i woun't explain why)

Brown Sugar  6 Oz
salt 3 Oz
Dry skim milk 4 oz
