1/3
cup
warm water
3
tablespoons
of butter
1

Instructions
Add the yeast, water, butter, and honey to your mixing bowl and stir well.
Add your flour and bee balm next, stirring well as you do. You will notice your dough starting to form.
Using your hands, mold the dough into a ball.
Place the ball in a bowl or on a cookie sheet (greased) and allow an hour for it to rise.
Place on a surface dusted with flour and knead for 10 minutes.
Divide the ball of dough in half and mold into two loaves.
Place your two loaves on a lightly greased baking sheet and cover with a damp towel.
Allow more time to rise, at least 20 minutes is sufficient.
Brush the top of the bread with an egg wash and sprinkle with any remaining petals.
Bake your bread at 400' F for 45 minutes, or until bread is golden.
