Hot Breads

Cool nights, bubbling stew and hot bread. Doesn't get much better than this!!

 

Mohave Mesquite Bread

 

Ingredients:

Hot Pot

  • 1 c Finely ground and sifted mesquite meal
  • 1 c Whole wheat flour
  • 1 ts Baking powder
  • 1 ts Baking soda
  • 2 tb Oil
  • 3/4 c Water
Directions:
Combine dry ingredients. Add oil and water and mix until dough forms a ball and cleans the sides of the bowl. (Because mesquite beans and meal have a tendency to pick up any moisture from the atmosphere, the amount of water needed will vary with the weather). Lightly grease a cookie sheet or flat pan. Form the dough into a half-sphere loaf on the pan. Bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees.
