1/4 cup (2 oz.) orange or apple juice
3 T. honey
1 tsp. salt
1 packet instant yeast (about 2 1/4 tsp.)

*Grease the sides and bottom of an 8 1/2" x 4 1/2" loaf pan with cooking spray or spread.
*Combine the lukewarm nonfat milk, juice and honey in a large bowl. Add the remaining ingredients. Beat vigorously for 3 minutes.  Dough will be very thick.  Scoop the dough into prepared pan. Cover the pan with a clean towel. Let the dough rise in a warm place for 45 - 75 minutes, until almost double. Time varies according to room temperature.
*Preheat the oven to 350 degrees when dough is almost doubled.
*Remove towel and bake bread for about 30 minutes. Dough will pull away from sides of pan when bread is done. Let bread cool 30 minutes before slicing.
