My Bisquick " Irish Soda Bread "

"The original recipe came from Cooks.com but I changed it a little to make it more "diet friendly". Sometimes I leave out the "optional" caraway seeds since I don't really care for them that much. I like to use 1/4 cup orange flavored dried cranberries (craisins) and 1/4 cup golden raisins. Be sure to plump whichever you use in the 3/4 cup of water in the microwave just short of boiling before adding."

  1. Really? Crisco and Heart smart don't go together. ??
     
  2. This had great flavor (I included the caraway) but was a bit too crumbly (I often find things made with Bisquick to be too crumbly). I cut recipe in half and baked in a smaller dish for about for about 20 minutes. Ingredient list was not in order of when added (sorry, pet peeve) :). Made for Spring 2013 PAC.
