    Graham Cracker Bread

    Source of Recipe

    Unkown
    Yield: 1 loaf

    1 package dry yeast
    1/4 cup warm water (105� to 115�)
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    3/4 cup cinnamon graham cracker crumbs (about 5 full cracker sheets)
    1/2 cup whole-wheat flour
    2 tablespoons honey
    1/2 teaspoon grated orange rind
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    2 tablespoons chilled stick margarine, cut into small pieces
    2/3 cup warm water (105� to 115�)
    2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
    Cooking spray

    Dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup warm water; let stand 5 minutes.

    Place 2 cups all-purpose flour and next 5 ingredients (all-purpose flour through salt) in a food processor; pulse 4 times. Add margarine; process 10 seconds. With processor on, slowly add yeast mixture and 2/3 cup water through
    food chute; process until combined.

    With processor on, add 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour through food chute, 1 tablespoon at a time, until dough leaves sides of bowl and forms a ball. Process 15 additional seconds.

    Place dough in a large bowl coated with cooking spray, turning to coat top. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85�), free from drafts, 45 minutes or until doubled in bulk. Punch dough down; divide into 3 equal portions. Working with one portion at a time (cover remaining dough to keep from drying), shape each portion into a 12-inch rope.

    Place 3 ropes lengthwise on a large baking sheet; pinch ends together at one end to seal. Braid ropes; pinch loose ends to seal. Place in an 8�4-inch loaf pan coated with cooking spray. Cover and let rise 45 minutes or until doubled in bulk.

    Bake at 375� for 30 minutes or until loaf sounds hollow when tapped. Remove from pan immediately; cool on a wire rack.
