Preparation time: 25 minutes, Servings: 27

Ingredients:
- 3 3/4 cups unbleached wheat flour or whole wheat flour. (Or use a combination of rye and oat and/or corn flours.)
-2 tsp. baking soda
-1/2 tsp. salt (optional)
-1 tsp. natural honey.
-2 cups natural plain yogurt (whole milk variety is best).

-------------------------------
Preparation:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Sift together flour, baking soda and salt.
- In separate bowl mix together honey and yogurt.
- Combine all ingredients. Add more flour, if necessary, until the dough holds together.
- Turn out onto a floured pastry cloth or board. Knead the dough for about 3 minutes. (You can also use a mixer with a dough hook or a Cuisinart to combine all ingredients AND knead the dough -- all in one bowl.)
- Shape a round loaf. Place on a "Pam sprayed and floured" cookie sheet. With a knife, cut a cross through the top of the bread from one side to the other (this allows it to rise).
- Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour or until the bread sounds "hollow" when knocked and a cake tester comes out clean.

Tell Me More:
Easy, absolutely delicious, yet lower in calories, and because it has no yeast, it is perfect for the person who follows a Candida Albicans (yeast) modified diet.

Lower fat and cholesterol, so serving sizes are larger.

This bread recipe can be modified many ways with the addition of cinnamon and raisins, or caraway seeds, or sun-dried tomatoes and a little sheep’s milk Romano cheese, for example. Be creative and use the basic dough recipe to make small round bread rolls or twisted breads or bake the dough in a oblong bread pan for a traditional shaped loaf. Vary your baking time accordingly, less time for smaller breads, etc.

NOTE: This bread freezes beautifully so try freezing slices for those rushed times.
