A delightful and wholesome bread recipe featuring the nutty flavor of flax seeds and a soft, tender texture.
Combine the flour, ground flax seeds, sugar, salt, and yeast in a large mixing bowl.
Ensure the yeast is evenly distributed for consistent rising.
In a separate bowl, mix the warm water, milk, and oil.
The liquid should be warm to activate the yeast but not too hot to kill it.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a dough forms.
Mix until the dough starts pulling away from the sides of the bowl.
Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
If the dough is sticky, sprinkle a little flour as needed.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
A warm oven (turned off) can be a great place for the dough to rise.
Punch down the dough, shape it into a loaf, and place it in a greased loaf pan.
Ensure the loaf is evenly shaped for uniform baking.
Cover the loaf pan with a kitchen towel and let the dough rise again until doubled, about 30 minutes.
This step ensures a light and fluffy texture.
Bake the loaf in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 30-35 minutes until golden brown.
Tap the top of the loaf; it should sound hollow when done.
Remove the bread from the oven, let it cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cooling on a wire rack prevents the bottom from becoming soggy.
