This is something I just put together based on other bread recipies I have, and as I write this the dough is still rising, so I can't vouch for it yet. Prep time includes rising time. Ingredients:
1 teaspoon honey |
2 1/4 teaspoons dry active yeast (1 envelope) |
1 cup water, lukewarm |
1/4 cup canola oil or 1/4 cup flax seed oil |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour |
1/2 cup ground flax seeds |
1/4 cup natural bran |
1/4 cup all-purpose flour, more if needed (you may need another 1/4 cup for kneading) |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl stir the honey and yeast into the water, and set aside for 10 minutes.
2. In a seperate bowl combine the flours, bran and flax seeds.
3. After 10 minutes mix the oil and salt into the yeast mixture, then add the 3/4 flour mix and blend with a fork until smooth.
4. Turn the dough onto a floured work surface and work in the remaining flour mix.
5. Knead, until you have smooth, springy dough, 10 to 15 minutes.
6. Cover with a tea towel and set in a warm place to rise to double, about 45 minutes.
7. Punch the dough down, shape and place in loaf pan.
8. Let rise again 30 minutes and bake at 400ºF/200ºC for 25 minutes until done.
9. For an extra touch brush the loaf with an omega-3 egg yolk/milk wash and sprinkle with flax seeds before you bake it.
10. Let the bread cool a little before slicing to serve.
