The Bread of Change

If you keep saying things are going to be bad, you have a chance of being a prophet. - Issac B. Singer


I have been trying out new foods because the doctor has asked my husband to change his diet.  Almost nothing could be worse news for my foodie husband. We are slowly trying to convert our diet. Here is a recipe I came up with this week that I wanted to share.  It uses Kamut flour.  It is a bit more healthy than regular flour.  If you would like to find out more about Kamut flour, follow this link:  Benefits of Kamut Flour.
To me, Kamut flour bread is similar in texture to corn bread.  I made this to go with dinner, but it could also be used as a breakfast bread.  My entire family loved it. I hope you enjoy it, too!

Molasses Kamut Bread

4.  Pour into prepared pan(s)
