Well, I have no other reason to fall in love with this bread than it’s delicious (not everyone loves it – probably because it’s not like a real bread per se).
But when I realized how easy it is to make and how most of the items can be easily stored in food storage, I was sold. SOLD survivors!
Like a bad rendition of he-said-she-said.
I’ll post the recipe picture below as well as type out the recipe so you can copy and paste it if you want.
I separated the dry from the wet and placed the beautiful dry ingredients into a separate bowl, like the directions demanded.
The coconut oil and honey needed to be loose enough I could get all of the items out of the baggy – this was messy for me until I figured out that the water needed to be hot, not luke warm. Ugh. I wasn’t thinking straight today.
I mixed and then pressed the mixture into a well-greased bread pan with a spoon. The recipe states use your fingers, I gave it the finger with that one. I do NOT like to touch stuff like this. I can actually cook an entire meal with five courses and never actually get food on my hands. It’s weird, but there it is.
These are after the first 20 minutes. Smelling good and they popped right out. I just used a pan spray to grease my pans. They worked awesome.
All in all this turned out great. On the slice I ate, I used very little honey to sweeten it. I was very excited that this worked out so well. I LOVED IT!
Thanks again Mom, for all the time and effort.
So here’s the recipe.

2 T pure maple syrup
3 T melted coconut oil

This recipe clicked with my survival side. A person might not have some of those things in their food storage, but I had no idea you could put that small amount of items into a pan and bake it and get something so edible. I’m going to experiment with more items and see what I can do with items from my food storage.

Neat blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it
from somewhere? A design like yours with a few simple tweeks would really make
my blog stand out. Please let me know where you got your
design. Bless you
I got it from Mojo Themes – Carolina. They did a beautiful job.
