Steps:

• To make dough; combine all dough ingredients and mix and knead by hand, mixer or bread machine - to make a soft dough.

• Turn dough out onto a lightly greased surface, flatten slightly and divide it into 6 pieces, each weighing about 4 ounces.

• Towards end of rising time, preheat oven to 375.
