Homemade Honey Sandwich Bread
I have made the bread in my house homemade for about 3 years now. I wish I had known sooner how easy it could be. I started when I had my third son, and I have never looked back. I mean honestly what the heck is in that store bread?! This is a yeast based bread recipe, no sourdough needed for this one. I always struggle with sourdough, so this was a great way for me to still make bread homemade, and easier for me. I honestly think the type of flour DOES make a difference, but the recipe will work with any all purpose flour of choice. My personal choice is Ballerina Farm’s High protein flour, OR sunrise farms organic non bleached. But also have come across a few other high protein flours that have worked just as good. Try it out, and you’ll be hooked. It is a great bread for sandwiches, toast, French toast, all the things.

Honey Bread
Makes 2 loaves
What you need:
In a small bowl, mix 3 cups warm water, and 2 TBSP dry active yeast- I love bob mills gluten free yeast.
Mix, and set aside at least 5 minutes.
In a very large bowl mix the following-
4 cups all purpose flour
1/4 cup honey
Add yeast mix to the flour mix. The easiest tool for this is a dough hook.
Cover, and set aside for 30 minutes.
Add in 3 cups flour, 1/4 cup honey, 4 TBSP melted butter, and 1 TBSP salt- love Redmond unrefined salt.
Set aside an extra cup of flour.
Mix all together. Add some flour to your hands, and knead by hand on the counter. Keep adding flour until stops being sticky, and form a ball.
Place back into bowl, and cover for another 20-30 minutes.
Punch your dough down, and cut in half.
Grease to bread loaf pans with butter, or tallow.
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
Press dough into the loaf pans, and cover until oven is heated.
Reduce heat to 350 degrees, and cook 30-35 minutes, until golden.
Enjoy!
