Bread we use in our Holy Communion services at church. *** The dough can be made in a bread machine, but will still be cooked in the oven. Follow the direction for your machine when adding the ingrediants and use the dough setting. Ingredients:
7/8 cup warm water |
1 1/2 tablespoons oil |
1 (1/4 ounce) packet yeast |
1 1/3 cups white flour |
4 1/2 tablespoons honey |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 1/3 cups whole wheat flour |
Directions:
1. In a bowl dissolve yeast in warm water.
2. Stir in honey, oil and salt.
3. Add flour and mix with hands.
4. Turn dough onto a lightly floured board and knead for 5 minuets.
5. When elastic, place dough in a bowl and cover lightly with plastic wrap.
6. Let dough rise in a warm place for 1 1/2 hours.
7. Turn dough out on a lightly floured board and knead a few times.
8. Roll to 1/4 inch thickness.
9. Cut into 4 inch rounds (a coffee can works well for this).
10. Score deeply with a sharp knife or pastry knife in a cross shape, cutting almost to the bottom.
11. Place on a lightly oiled baking sheet and bake at 375 for 10 to 12 minuets.
12. The bread WILL NOT brown noticeably, so it should not be baked longer then that.
