Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2.5 cups Bread flour
- 0.5 cup Whole wheat flour
- 0.25 cup Ground flax seeds
- 2 tablespoons Whole flax seeds
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
Instructions
Add the ingredients to your bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Typically, this means liquids (water, milk, olive oil, honey) go in first.
Add the salt next, then the bread flour and whole wheat flour, followed by the ground flax seeds and whole flax seeds.
Make a small well in the flour and add the active dry yeast, ensuring it doesn’t touch the liquid ingredients before mixing begins.
Place the bread machine pan into the machine and select the Basic or Whole Wheat setting, depending on your machine’s options.
Choose your preferred crust setting (Light, Medium, or Dark) and press Start.
Allow the machine to knead, prove, and bake the bread, which typically takes 2-3 hours depending on the program selected.
Once the baking cycle is complete, carefully remove the bread pan from the machine using oven mitts and turn the loaf out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve and enjoy your homemade flax seed bread with butter, jam, or your favorite sandwich fillings.
