This is a weekly staple in our home and they key to me getting daily workouts at the gym with my girls.
I make lunches daily for us to leave the house in the morning and come back just when it’s time for nap & quiet time. I get to have a work out at the gym, while the girls play with their friends and we have lunch at noon when we’re all done. Making this great quality bread weekly allows me to make their favorite sandwiches every day for lunch! Along with my homemade Jam and great quality cream cheese (or PB if your kids prefer) – makes the perfect lunch on the go! Guilt free!
3½cupsall-purpose flourI use Einkorn All Purpose Flour

Instructions
In a large bowl mix flour, yeast and salt. Then in a smaller bowl combine honey, warm milk (no more than 100℉ or it will kill the yeast) and melted butter.
Combine the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients with a spatula, as the dough will be very sticky. Make sure the flour is fully combined.
Shape the dough into a ball with the spatula by scraping down the sides and cover with plastic wrap or lid. Let it rise for 1 hour.
During the first rise grease up a loaf pan, I like to use butter.
Take the dough out of the bowl, after one hour. Wet your hand so the dough doesn't stick and shape it into a loaf. Place it in your greased up loaf pan and cover it with plastic wrap.
Let the dough rise for 90 minutes or until one and half the original size.
