Eucharistic Bread Recipe

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 tablespoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1/4 cup shortening
  • 1 cup water
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease two baking sheets.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, salt and baking soda. Stir in honey, shortening and water. Mix dough until it is smooth and well developed. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and supple, about 8 minutes.
  3. Divide the dough into two equal pieces and form into loaves. Place loaves on prepared baking sheets.
  4. Bake in preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until golden.
