This is Joelene Young's recipe for Communion Bread that we use every Easter season. It's easy to make and pretty yummy!
Prep time: 1.5 hours Cook time: 20 minutes Ingredients 1 1/4 c warm water 3 T honey 2 pkgs active dry yeast (2 T) 1 1/2 T butter, softened 1 1/2 T dry milk 1 t salt 1 1/2 c whole wheat flour 1 1/2 c white flour (just use 1 c for mixing into the dough) Directions: In a large mixing bowl, mix water, honey, and yeast. Let yeast proof for 5-10 minutes. Add butter, dry milk and salt. Mix whole wheat flour with 1 cup of white flour; add flour to wet ingredients to form a soft dough. Knead adding remaining white flour as needed. Knead 7-10 minutes, until dough springs back when pressed. Place in a lightly greased bowl, cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size (about 1 hour). Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Punch down the dough and roll out to about 1/4" thickness. Cut into 3" to 4" rounds, place on greased baking sheets, and score a cross on the tops of the loaves with the back of a butter knife. Let rise 15-20 minutes, then bake for 10-12 minutes until lightly browned. Don't overbake. Cool on racks and place in zip-loc bags.
