Flax bread with health benefits!

In this bread recipe, I used flaxseed, buckwheat and arrowroot flour. All three flours are nutritionally packed. Did you know that ground flaxseed is healthier than whole flaxseed? As per the Mayo clinic, ground flaxseed is easier to digest. Whole flaxseed may pass through your intestine undigested, which means you won’t get all the benefits.

The recipe is pretty straight forward. First, you proof the yeast. This is a process of first dissolving the yeast in warm water, a necessary hydration step when using active dry yeast in recipes.

While the yeast is proofing, combine the dry ingredients.

Next, whisk wet ingredients, including the yeast and mix with dry ingredients until smooth.

Transfer the batter into a loaf pan, sprinkle with the magical everything bagel spice and allow the bread to rise in a warm place.

allow extra time for the flax bread to rise

By using flax and buckwheat flour in this recipe, the dough takes a little longer to rise. But it is well worth the wait.

Once the flax bread finishes baking, you must allow for the bread to fully cool before slicing.
