Ingredients

  • 3 cups unbleached white flour
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar, lightly packed
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1/4 cup shortening
  • 1 cup water

How To Make communion bread

  • Step 1
    Put all ingredients into mixing bowl and blend. Use the dough hook and knead for 8 minutes. Add flour as needed to make a stiff dough. Pat out into 2 discs, about 1/2 inch thick and prick with a fork.
  • Step 2
    Bake at 350 degrees F until light brown, about 35 or 40 minutes. Cool on a wire rack. This makes about 20 servings, according to the original recipe. However, at my chuch, we cut it into very small squares for communion, so it may serve a lot more people.
