sheets and flatten slightly. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled (30 or 40
minutes.)
Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven until lightly browned, about 20 minutes.
Note: This recipe can be shaped into 2 loaves and placed in greased 9 x 5-inch loaf pans.

sounds hollow when tapped on bottom.
