Directions
- 1In a bowl, mix together warm water, honey, and yeast. Cover with a towel and let sit for 5-10 minutes to activate.
- 2Add melted butter and salt to the mixture and stir.
- 3Add flour one cup at a time, combining well after each addition.
- 4Knead the dough in the bowl until most of the flour is incorporated, then transfer to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until you get a smooth ball.
- 5Oil a bowl with olive oil, and roll the dough around to coat. Cover and let rise for 1.5 hours.
- 6Punch down the dough to release air bubbles.
- 7Divide the dough in half.
- 8Flatten and stretch each half of the dough to the length of a 9x5 loaf pan. Roll up tightly and pinch the seams together to seal.
- 9Place each dough in a greased 9x5 loaf pan, cover and let rise for another 1-1.5 hours.
- 10Bake at 350°F for 30 minutes.
- 11Remove loaves from the pans immediately and let cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
