I'm so sorry.... This was supposed to have been posted yesterday and it never went up. I feel awful... No blog deserves to feel orphaned. Please forgive me!
For this months Secret Recipe Club assignment I had the privilege of having Adventures in All Things food. She has an excellent blog and mad cake decorating skills. There were so many things I wanted to try but I ended up choosing the Flax seed bread. While my picture does not do it justice, my hubby and mom said it was good. I'm still not able to eat breads so I have to take their word on it. She made it in her bread machine and I used my Kitchen-aid. I also added a bit of wheat germ to the bread, just because I had some and like to throw it in baked goods.
Flax seed honey wheat bread
1 1/2 c. Water, room temp.
3 Tbsp. Olive Oil (or Canola for milder flavor)
1/4 c. Honey
2 1/3c. Bread flour
1 2/3 c. Whole wheat flour
1/3 c. nonfat Dry Milk powder
3 Tbsp. Flax Seed
2 tablespoons wheat germ
1 1/4 Tbsp. Vital Wheat Gluten
1 1/2 tsp. Salt
2 1/4 tsp. SAF yeast
In a mixing bowl, combine the water, yeast and wheat gluten. Once it starts getting all foamy, add the oil, honey, salt, dry milk powder; mix together to combine. Gradually add the wheat germ, flax seed and flours. Using the dough hook, mix on medium speed for about seven minutes. Allow bread dough to rise until doubled, about an hour, punch down and knead for about thirty second then put into a greased bread pan. Allow bread to rise for about thirty minutes. Bake at 425 degrees for about 40-45 minutes.
