Communion Bread



Thoroughly combine the dry ingredients:



2 c whole-wheat flour

1 c white flour

1 & 1/4 tsp baking powder

1 & 1/4 tsp salt



Stir in 4 tsp oil. Set aside.



Mix wet ingredients together until dissolved:



1 Cup very hot water (about 115˚ F)

3 Tbsp honey

3 Tbsp molasses



Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix well. Dough should be slightly sticky. Do not knead.



Divide into eight balls and flatten each into a 1/4 - 1/8 inch thick disk.



With a knife, score the top of each loaf into eight pie-shaped sections, so that the sections can be more easily broken off while serving. Alternatively, you could score a cross onto the loaf.



Lay the loaves on a baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and brush the tops of the loaves with oil. Bake an additional 5-8 minutes. Let cool.



Yield: eight 4 oz. loaves.
