PECAN RAISIN CRISPS
Steps:
- In a large mixing bowl, stir together honey and 1/2 cup lukewarm (105-115 degrees Fahrenheit) water. Add yeast and stir to dissolve. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Stir in 1 1/2 cups lukewarm (105-115 degrees Fahrenheit) water, oil and salt. Add whole wheat flour, and stir until well combined. Add pecans and raisins, then stir in all-purpose flour until dough leaves sides of bowl, adding a bit more flour if necessary. Turn dough out onto a floured surface and knead 5 to 10 minutes, or until smooth and elastic. Place dough in a lightly oiled mixing bowl, turning to coat. Cover with a damp cloth and set aside in a warm place to rise until doubled in bulk, about 1 1/2 hours. Lightly oil a large baking sheet; set aside. Punch down dough and turn out onto a floured surface. Shape dough into a large round loaf and transfer to baking sheet. Cover with damp cloth and let rise again until almost doubled, about 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. With a paring knife, slash top of loaf. Bake 15 minutes, then reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees and baked 30 to 35 minutes more, or until nicely browned and bottom of loaf sounds hollow when tapped. Cool on rack before slicing. For crisps: Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Slice the bread into thin slices, about 1/4 inch thick. Brush the top side with butter and sprinkle a generous amount of sugar, about 1 tsp depending on how long the slice is. Bake on a sheet pan for 8 minutes or until crisp. Remove from oven and flip over the bread slices. Brush with butter and sprinkle more sugar. Bake an additional 8 minutes or until lightly golden brown. Remove and cool.
