    Method

  • 1. Mix the first 8 ingredients in a bowl
  • 2. Grind in a flour mill
  • 3. In a large glass bowl mix whey (or water), honey, oil, and salt
  • 4. In a separate bowl mix the milled flour, yeast, milled flax seed, dough enhancer, and gluten until well combined
  • 5. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir or knead for about 10 minutes
  • 6. Pour dough into greased pans (I like to grease my pans with a little bit of coconut oil or olive oil)
  • 7. Optional step: “paint” an egg wash over the top and sprinkle sunflower or sesame seeds over the egg wash
  • 8. You can also push dried fruit into the batter
  • 9. Cover with a towel and let rise in pans for one hour or until dough is about 1/4 inch from the top of the pan
  • 10. It will overflow in the oven if you let it rise too long
  • 11. Bake at 350F/180C for 30-50 minutes
  • 12. Remove pans from oven and place on a cooling rack
  • 13. Run a knife around the edges and remove loaves from pans immediately
  • 14. Let them rest on their sides (this will allow more air to circulate around them)
  • 15. Resist the urge to cut into the loaves. They need to cool at least 30 minutes before you cut them
