Description

Vegan Whole Wheat Flax Bread is easier to bake than you think. Soft, healthy, and packed with flaxseed goodness, perfect for sandwiches or toast. Have you tried baking your own bread lately?


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 cups whole wheat bread flour
  • 1 cup cake flour
  • 1/2 cup ground flaxseed (grind whole seeds in a coffee grinder or spice grinder)
  • 1/2 to 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 to 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 packet (8g) instant quick-rise yeast
  • 500 ml lukewarm water

Instructions

  1. Mix all the dry ingredients together in a big bowl.
  2. Pour in the lukewarm water and stir everything until it’s well combined.
  3. Let the dough rest until it doubles in size, about 1 hour or so.
  4. Once it’s risen, press it down gently with a wooden spoon.
  5. Put the dough into your bread pans and let it rise again until puffy.
  6. Brush the top with water. You can sprinkle coarse salt on top if you like; if you do, use less salt inside the dough (around ½ teaspoon). If you skip the coarse salt, try sprinkling some extra flax seeds on top instead.
  7. Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 50 to 60 minutes. It’s done when a toothpick or skewer comes out clean.

 

Try it fresh out of the oven, warm, hearty, and packed with flaxseed goodness. Perfect for sandwiches or toast!
