Ingredients:

- 6 cups All Purpose Flour
Directions:
- In a large bowl, whisk together warm water and honey until honey is dissolved.

- Mix in salt, and then add flour one cup at a time (Dough should start to get thick after 3 cups) to the yeast mixture (I mix with a spatula but a standing mixer with a dough hook could also be used).
- Add a little extra flour to hands and knead the dough for 5 minutes in the bowl.
- Place kneaded dough in a large greased bowl and cover with towel for 1 hour.
- Take dough out of bowl, and punch and knead the dough for a few minutes.

Recipe's Story:
My Grandma Violet made fresh bread on a daily basis. Nothing is better than having a slice of warm homemade bread. This isn’t my grandma’s recipe, but I wanted to honor her with a recipe that I found to be so wonderful and easy for anyone new to baking bread.
