Communion Bread Recipe

Yield: four 8 oz. loaves; each loaf serves approximately 40 people.

Sift dry ingredients three times:

2 c. whole wheat flour

1 c. white flour

1/4 tsp. baking powder

1/4 tsp. salt

Cut in

4 tsp. oil

Mix water and sweeteners together:

3/4 cup + 2 Tbsp. very hot water

3 Tbsp. honey

3 Tbsp molasses

Add to dry ingredients and mix well (dough should be a bit sticky).

Divide and roll the dough into a 1/4 inch thick circle.

Mark with a cross (a square cross is good and a spatula works well).

Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes.

Remove from oven and brush with oil.

Bake an additional 5-8 minutes.

Cool on racks.
