Directions
Dissolve yeast in the warm water.
Combine butter, molasses, honey, and salt.
Mix well.
Add yeast mixture.
Gradually add flour.
Turn onto a floured board and knead until smooth (this will take a fair amount of shoulder; the dough is fairly heavy).
Place in a large greased bowl, then turn to grease the top.
Cover with a clean tea towel, and let rise until doubled, about two hours.
Punch dough down, and let it rest a few minutes.
Divide into quarters, and shape into loaves.
Place in greased bread pans, and let rise about one hour.
Bake at 375℉ (190℃). for 35 to 40 minutes.
