North African Coriander Bread

(makes 3 medium or 2 large loaves)

2 c. milk

6  tablespoons butter

1/2 c. honey

7 c. bread or all purpose flour

2 pkgs yeast (2 1/4 tsp yeast in each package--I looked this up, since the yeast I use doesn't come in packages)

2 tsp salt

4 tsp ground coriander

1/4 tsp each ground ginger & cloves

1/2 tsp cinnamon

2 eggs

1 T. grated orange or lemon peel

You know the drill from here--heat the milk & soften the butter, add honey.  Stir together dry ingredients.  Beat it all up, knead it, let it rise until double in bulk.  Punch down, put in pans, let rise again and FINALLY,

bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for 35 minutes.

I've turned this recipe into rolls too.  Yummy either way.
