Ingredients

5 1/2 cups of Lukewarm Water
1 packet of Yeast (21/4 tsp)
3 cups of Flour
1/4 teaspoon of salt
Zest of Orange
1/2 of Said Orange, Juiced

Preparation

1
Mix together the water and yeast. Allow it to rest for about 10 minutes.
2
Add in the salt and the flour, one cup at a time. Combine to form a rough dough ball.
3
Now add in the zest, juice, and cherries.
4
Combine the ingredients and bring your dough ball out to a well floured surface. Dough will be moist.
5
Knead the dough for 5 to 7 minutes and add in additional flour as necessary. I probably ended up adding an additional 1/4 to 1/2 cup while kneading.
6
Let the dough rest covered, in a warm dry place for at least one hour or until doubled in size.
7
Punch the dough back down, reform a tight ball and score bread. Let rise a second time.
8
Once bread is ready to be baked, spritz with water and transfer to oven.
9
Bake at 350 degrees for about 25 minutes.
