Graham Cracker Brown Bread(CL)

Cooking spray
4 teaspoons graham cracker crumbs
1 cup all-purpose flour

Coat an 8 x 4-inch loaf pan with cooking spray; dust with 4 teaspoons crumbs.

Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife. Combine flour, baking soda, nutmeg, and salt in large bowl, stirring with a whisk.
