Kefir Bread

This is a simple, yet super tasty and hearty bread. Topped with a drizzle of honey makes for a sweet treat. When I first made it, hubby asked for another piece right away, saying, “It’s like liquid candy.”

Great also topped with yogurt cheese or warmed with a pat of butter.

The overnight soaking in kefir make the flour easily digestible and super nutritious.
