Step 1

In large mixer bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of the flour, yeast, wheat germ and salt; mix well. Add water, molasses, shortening and egg. Blend at low speed until combined; increase speed to medium and beat 3 minutes.

Step 2

Remove bowl from mixer and, by hand, gradually stir in remaining flour about 1/2 cup at a time to make a stiff batter. Cover; let rise until light and doubled, about 1 hour.

Step 3

Stir down batter. Spoon into greased 9 x 5-inch loaf pan or 2-quart casserole. Cover; let rise in warm place until light, about 45 minutes.

Step 4

Near the end of the second rise, preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until deep golden brown. Remove from pan and cool on a baking rack.
