Categories     Bread

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 cups whole wheat flour
2 tsp yeast
1 tsp salt
1 cup ground flaxseed
1 1/2 cups lukewarm water

Steps:

  • Sift the dry ingredients together in a large bowl to remove any lumps. Add in the water in small portions, stirring to combine with a spatula.
  • Finish folding the dough by hand, or simply continue working it with a spatula. Place the dough into a large bowl, cover it with plastic wrap or a lid, and leave it on the counter to rise overnight.
  • The next day, the dough should be bubbly, fluffy, and a little sticky. Flour your hands and form either one large or two smaller bread loaves. Place the loaves on a floured baking sheet, cover them with a towel, and let them rise for about an hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 450°F and make sure you have two racks in place. Pour 2 cups of hot, boiled water into a deep baking dish. Place this baking dish on the lower rack (the water helps the bread to rise and crisp). Place the bread on the top racks. After 10 minutes, remove the dish with the water. Continue baking for another 20-30 minutes depending on the size of your bread loaves. Enjoy!

FLAXSEED BREAD



Flaxseed Bread image

Provided by PetraScott

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 1/3 cups + 1 Tbsp. golden flaxseed meal*
1 cup warm or hot water
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda**
1 tsp. apple cider vinegar**
1/2 tsp. salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 360°F/180°C.
  • Grind the flaxseeds into very fine flour. Ideally, sift the flaxseed flour to make sure there are no actual "seeds".
  • In a large mixing bowl, mix together the flaxseed meal, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the apple cider vinegar and water, and stir until the flaxseed meal becomes sticky and holds together in a lump, for about 30 seconds. Then use your hands to roughly form the dough into a loaf shape. (Don't over-knead the dough. Handle it as little as possible). The loaf should have a nice smooth surface.
  • Place the loaf into a greased (or parchment paper-lined) loaf pan. The bread fits perfectly into a 1-pound loaf pan (8.5" x 4.5"). However, if you only have 1.5-pound loaf pan (10" x 5") - like I do - it will work just fine. (If you're working with the larger size loaf pan, form the loaf, place it into the loaf pan, but don't press it into the corners). You can also use a baking sheet lined with a piece of parchment paper. The bread holds its shape during baking really well, so the loaf pan is not necessary.
  • Mist with water and sprinkle some seeds on top (I use a mix of flaxseeds, sesame seeds, and sunflower seeds). Gently press down on the seeds with your palm to make them stick better.
  • Note: if you watched the video that goes with this recipe, I said that I let the bread rest, covered, for a few minutes. Well, if you're using the baking soda, you want to do the opposite. When you mix baking soda (base) with apple cider vinegar (acid), you get a chemical reaction. A product of this reaction is carbon dioxide, producing a lift in your baked goods. The reaction starts as soon as the base and the acid are mixed. So, get the bread in the oven immediately after you mix the two, before the reaction tapers off.
  • Bake the bread for 60 minutes. The crust should be golden brown (if using golden flaxseeds).
  • Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool inside the loaf pan for 10 minutes. Transfer the bread on a cooling rack, and let it cool completely before slicing.
  • Store the flaxseed bread in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 7 days. For longer term storage, freeze in an airtight container for up to 3 months. I like to slice the bread prior to freezing, but you can freeze the whole loaf as well.

LOW CARB FLAX FLAT BREAD



Low Carb Flax Flat Bread image

A good bread replacement when doing a low carb diet. All of the carbohydrate in the flax meal is fiber. Plus flax is super good for you! Great as a sandwich, with jelly, or with some edamame hummus. This is adapted from a recipe found on about.com.

BASIC FLAXSEED BREAD (FLAX SEED BREAD)



Basic Flaxseed Bread (Flax Seed Bread) image

From Fleischmann's Yeast "Bake for the Cure" recipes. What I like about this recipe is that it can be made into a French Bread-like loaf. Should you want to use regular active dry yeast, proof first and adjust rise times. (Note: I found with the fast rising yeast it took an exhorbitant amount of time to achieve the correct amount of rise. I prefer using regular active dry yeast with the proofing method in warm water and a normal rise time.)

Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 1h30m

Yield 2 loaves

Number Of Ingredients 8

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

Steps:

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Bake loaves for 30 minutes or until sounds hollow when tapped on bottom.
