âThis hearty, whole grain bread is among my all-time favorites,â says Jennifer Niemi of Kingston, Nova Scotia. âThe flaxseed adds a nutty texture. Every slice is so satisfying.â Ingredients:
1-1/2 cups king arthur premium 100% whole wheat flour |
1-1/2 to 2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast |
1 teaspoon salt |
1-1/2 cups fat-free milk |
1/4 cup packed brown sugar |
2 tablespoons honey |
2 tablespoons plus 1-1/2 teaspoons butter, divided |
1/2 cup ground flaxseed |
1/2 cup flaxseed |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, 1 cup all-purpose flour, yeast and salt. In a large saucepan, heat the milk, brown sugar, honey and 2 tablespoons butter to 120°-130°. Add to dry ingredients; beat until smooth. Stir in ground flaxseed and flaxseed until smooth. Stir in enough remaining all-purpose flour to form a firm dough.
2. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a large bowl coated with cooking spray, turning once to coat top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
3. Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface. Shape into a loaf; place in a 9-in. x 5-in. loaf pan coated with cooking spray. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
4. Bake at 375° for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan to a wire rack. Melt remaining butter; brush over bread. Cool. Yield: 1 loaf (16 slices).
