Mix the yeast and water. Let sit aside while you combine all other ingredients except the flour.
Mix all wet ingredients together. Add in flour a half cup at a time. Mix well.
Cover and let rest for one hour until doubled.
Punch dough down. Turn dough out into a greased casserole dish (I use a round Pyrex dish).
Let dough raise another 30 minutes.
Bake in a preheated 350F oven for 45 minutes. It will need this long, the outside will be a dark brown, but the inside needs to cook longer or it will be gooey.
Let cool slightly. Turn out of pan. Brush with melted butter, sprinkle with a bit of salt, and serve warm.
