  • 1/2 pure honey
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup hot coconut milk
  • 1 Tbs salt
  • 4 and 1/2 to 5 cups of whole wheat pastry flour

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, combine yeast and warm water. Let mixture sit for at least 10 minutes until yeast foams.
  • In a mixer, cream together coconut oil, honey, and eggs.
  • Combine hot coconut milk and salt. Add to mixer.
  • Add yeast mixture to the rest of the ingredients. Mix only until combined.
  • Add 4 cups of flour and knead only until all ingredients are combined and dough is elastic and starts to pull from the sides of the mixer. Add additional 1/2 cup up to 1 cup of flour if too sticky.
  • In a large loaf pan, lightly grease with olive oil cooking spray. Form dough into large ball and place in loaf pan.
