Recipe - Microwave Bread

3 cup Flour (mix white,
wholewheat, oat, etc.)
2 tablespoon Wheat gluten (optional)
1 tablespoon Malt (optional)
1 teaspoon Salt
1 tablespoon Honey
1 tablespoon Molasses
One half cup Water
1 tablespoon Oil
2 teaspoon Yeast
One half cup Warm water
1 teaspoon Honey

Dissolve yeast in warm water with 1 tsp honey. Set aside and let rise 5
minutes. Mix together dry ingredients. Stir in yeast mixture. Add honey,
molasses, oil, and as much of the One half C water as needed to make a moist but
not sticky dough. When dough is ready to knead, place a large jar of water
and a microwavesafe baking dish (i.e. bowl, caserole, ceramic or clay pot,
corningware, etc.) in the microwave and heat on high for 5 minutes. Knead
dough while water is heating. When water is hot, place dough in the baking
dish which is still in the microwave and heat on high for 1 minute. Set
timer and allow dough to rise for 20 minutes. When dough has sufficiently
risen, bake on high for 57 minutes, depending on thickness of loaf. Bread
is done when the crust springs back when pressed.
