UNLEAVENED COMMUNION BREAD



Unleavened Communion Bread image

When I offered to be the person to make the Communion bread, I found myself somewhat nervous and intimidated. I tried 4 recipes, 2 leavened and 2 unleavened. I brought samples to some of the church members, and the minister. The members told me which ones they liked. The minister just smiled and said they were all fine, and whatever I did would be good. After several tries, I settled on this recipe. The minister was right... it does not matter. The bread is transformed into the Holy Sacrament at the altar. I use enough whole wheat flour to give it a nice color, and to help give the bread more body. I like to mark the bread with a cross, as a symbol and make it so that it is easily broken. We have 2 services, so I make 3 loaves. I pray as I make the loaves, and feel very humble that I am allowed to do this for our church.

Time 1h30m

Yield 3 Communion Loaves, 120 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 cups flour (I use all purpose, unbleached)
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter (one stick)
3 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • Sift dry ingredients into a bowl.
  • Cut in butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives.
  • Add enough milk to pull dough together.
  • Turn dough onto very lightly floured surface and kneed gently for 5 minutes or so.
  • Weigh dough, and divide into three portions.
  • Use 3 small pieces of parchment paper, drawing circles (5 1/2", using a small lid) in pencil, and placing the penciled side down so that the pencil marks do not show on the finished breads.
  • Place each portion onto the parchment paper.
  • Flatten and shape each loaf into size wanted, (using the markings as a guide) and score. (I flatten to about 1/4" and score with biscuit cutter, pizza wheel, and a fork).
  • The photos show how I score the loaves. I score them so there will be 40 pieces per loaf.
  • Bake at 400° to 15-20 minutes until slightly brown at the edges. (I place the parchment and bread on a pizza stone to bake and bake them one at a time since my stone only accommodates one).

COMMUNION BREAD (UNLEAVENED) RECIPE - (3.5/5)



Communion Bread (Unleavened) Recipe - (3.5/5) image

Provided by á-25497

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 cup white flour
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 cup warm water
1 T oil
2 T honey

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°. Mix all ingredients together - IT WILL BE STICKY!! (REALLY spray down your hands/spatula with PAM.) If, however, it is TOO sticky, add very small amounts of flour (recommended amounts would be: 1 additional Tablespoon of whole wheat flour, then UP TO 2 additional Tablespoons of white flour) - please wait until you have thoroughly mixed all ingredients before adding more flour! **I have never had to add the extra flour.** Divide into three parts and pat down onto parchment paper, making three "circles" about 1/4-inch-high (no higher than 1/2-inch-high). All three circles should fit onto one baking sheet - you can have them really close together. You can start out with a spatula, but I always end up using my hands to spread them on the baking sheet. **If you are working alone, have a couple teaspoons of oil in a dish to reapply oil to your hands easily when needed! This part is not always easy - be prepared for the parchment paper to move quite a bit.** They usually take about 20 minutes in the oven, but just to be safe, start off with the timer set at 17 minutes. When they are slightly brown on the edges, they are done - DO NOT OVER-BAKE (or it's crunchy). It is hard to tell, since the bread is made with whole wheat flour, but you can also touch the center of the circles and see if it is done. **Mine usually take only the 17 minutes, but I spread mine pretty thin.** If you are using for communion, take a pizza cutter and cut into strips and then across to made bite-sized squares, leaving out any hard edges. One round, depending on the size/thickness, usually gets cut into about 120 good pieces. The bread only lasts a few days, but freezes beautifully!! It is also good to munch on!

BREAD FOR COMMUNION - UNLEAVENED



Bread For Communion - Unleavened image

Our church is small. So I only make approximately 25 to 50. If you belong to a larger church, you can double or triple the recipe. Some people like to have the bread round instead square, you can do both. I have made these for 3 churches. They're much better than the ones you buy. If you ever taste one these breads, you will...
