Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the Grape-Nuts cereal and boiling water. Stir, then let the mixture sit for 10 minutes to soften and cool slightly.
In a larger mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate small bowl, beat the egg. Then, mix in the buttermilk and vanilla extract until well combined.
Add the soaked Grape-Nuts mixture and the buttermilk-egg mixture to the dry ingredients. Stir with a wooden spoon or spatula until the batter is just combined. Avoid overmixing – the batter should be slightly thick but uniformly moistened.
Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
Carefully transfer the bread to a wire rack and allow it to cool completely before slicing and serving.
Enjoy your rustic and comforting Grape Nuts bread, perfect with butter, cream cheese, or a drizzle of honey!
