Ingredients: 4 C Flour (Whole Wheat, All-Purpose, Bread Flour, Spelt Flour, Rye Flour or a combination) 1/2 T Fine Sea Salt 2 T Honey 2 C Homemade Full-Fat Milk Kefir Directions: In a large bowl, mix together flour and salt. Pour in honey and 1 1/2 C of milk kefir. Add flour. Stir together using a sturdy wooden spoon until dough is sticky but pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Add more milk kefir as needed. On a well-floured work surface, knead dough 5-10 minutes or until soft and smooth, adding more flour as necessary. Transfer to an oiled bowl. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and leave on counter to ferment 12-24 hours. Punch down dough. Spray a standard-size loaf pan with non-stick spray. Place dough in greased loaf pan. Allow to rise in a warm place (or use "proof" setting on oven) until center of dough reaches the top of the loaf pan. Prehead oven to 350 degrees F. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until done. Remove immediately from loaf pan and allow to cool completely on cooling rack before slicing. * Adapted from https://www.culturesforhealth.com/learn/recipe/milk-kefir-recipes/simple-milk-kefir-yeast-bread/
