Instructions: Makes 12 slices

1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in 2 tablespoons of the water. Set aside until bubbly, about 5 minutes.

2. Mix in the honey, oil, salt and the remaining 1.25 cups water. Add the flaxseed meal, whole-wheat flour and 1 cup of the bread flour. Mix well.

3. Stir in enough of the remaining bread flour to make a soft, kneadable dough. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 10 minutes, or until smooth and elastic.

4. Coat a 9x5-inch loaf pan with no-stick spray. Shape the dough into a loaf and place in the pan. Cover; let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk-about 1 hour.

5. Bake at 350 for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the loaf is browned on top and sounds hollow when tapped. Cool.

Note: To make flaxseed meal, use a
blender or coffee mill to grind the seeds to the consistency of cornmeal.

As a general rule, 2/3 cup of flaxseed yields 1 cup of meal.
