unleavened bread recipe...

One of my favorite "jobs" at church is to prepare the bread for our communion. Because we are a small fellowship (approx 100-110), it is not a difficult task. This is an incredible privilege because it gives me an opportunity and a time to focus in preparing my own heart while I prepare the bread for our communion table.

I tried a new recipe tonight for my family to try to see if how they liked it. This is the bread we will serve at communion during our Sunrise Service on Resurrection Day. I have to say, it's good.

Unleavened Bread

3/4 c. scalded milk

1 egg

1/4 c. honey

2 1/2 c. flour (plus additional for rolling out dough)

1/4 c. butter

1 t. salt

Scald milk and remove from heat. Stir in butter, honey and egg. Gradually add flour and salt. Knead until smooth. Roll out to 1/4 inch thickness and cut in shapes (squares, rectangles, circles...). Place on a lightly oiled cookie sheet and prick with a fork. Bake at 375 degrees for 15-17 minutes.
