Ingredients:
6 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, divided
3/4 cup ground flax seeds (flax meal)
3 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon fast rising instant yeast
2 cups water
1 cup milk
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Directions:
1. Set aside 1 cup flour.
2. Mix remaining flour, flax seed, sugar, salt, and yeast in a large bowl.
3. Heat water, milk, and oil until hot to the touch (about 125-130°F) but DO NOT BOIL.
4. Stir milk mixture into dry mixture. Mix in enough reserved flour to make a soft dough that does not stick to the bowl.
5. Turn out onto floured board and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
6. Cover dough and let rest 10 minutes.
7. Divide dough in 1/2 and shape into loaves.
8. Place into 2 greased (8 1/2 inch x 4 1/2 inch) loaf pans.
9. Cover and let rise in a warm place until dough has doubled in volume (about 40-50 minutes).
10. Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F for 30-35 minutes.
11. Remove from pans and cool on wire racks.
