  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup lukewarm milk
  • 4 cups flour

Directions:

  2. Combine egg, honey, coriander, cinnamon, cloves, and salt in a deep bowl, mixing with a whisk. Add yeast mixture, milk, and 4 Tblsp. of melted butter, mixing well. Stir in flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until mixture forms a stiff dough.

  5. Allow to rise another hour until it reaches the top rim of the dish. Bake at 300 degrees F for 50-60 minutes until top is crusty and golden brown. Turn bread out of pan and set on a rack to cool.
