Be the first to rate this recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup flax seed meal
  • 1 (1/4 ounce) package fast rising yeast (or active dry but see note in description)
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 1/4 cups warm water

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix dry ingredients. Stir in the warm water, honey and olive oil until it forms soft dough. Turn out dough onto a floured surface, add more flour if dough is too sticky and knead dough for 5 minutes until smooth and elastic. Cover and let rise for 20 minutes in a warm place.
  2. On a floured surface cut dough in half. Roll dough to form a French bread like loaf. Place on a baking sheet lined with nonstick liner. Lightly flour the bottom of loaf and place on liner. Cover again with clean towel and let rise for about 30 minutes. I found this took much longer for me.
  3. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Bake loaves for 30 minutes or until sounds hollow when tapped on bottom.
