1 1/2 c wheat, kamut or spelt

1/2 c honey
1/3 c water
in a bowl or mixer bowl.

To keep the bread from sticking, oil sides & bottom of a glass bread pan with:
1/2 t virgin coconut or olive oil
Sprinkle:
1/4 c unsweetened shredded
coconut or flakes
in the bottom of the pan.
Spoon the mixture into the pan or form the mixture into a long oval ball & put into the pan.
Press mixture with a spatula or back of a large spoon, making it thicker around the edges & thinner in the middle.

1/4 - 1/2 c roasted peanuts
or roasted and salted peanuts
Bake at 350º for 25 - 30 min.
Hint to get the bread out:
Loosen with a knife around the edges, lifting under the bread so that it practically comes out.
Then slice the bread in the pan.
To flip the bread out, put a cookie sheet on top of the pan.
Flip it over.
It should come out.
You may need to help with a knife.
Put a plate on top of the bread & flip it over again to get the bread upright.
