ZuzuBean Delish: High Fiber Flax Bread

Bread Baking Goddess

Why bread? Well, in my house, we go through a lot of it. Most of the stuff in the grocery stores isn't very good. And good bread is super expensive (after all, most bread is flour, yeast, salt and water). Plus I love to bake. But I can't bake sweets all of the time since that wouldn't be a very healthy decision. So making homemade bread lets me bake, and feeds my family in healthful ways while saving money!

I am trying to challenge myself this year to bake a different loaf of bread every week. So 52 different recipes by the end of the year. I'm a little behind, of course...that is how my life runs at this point. But this resolution didn't come to me until mid January. I'll share some of my other baking adventures along the way as well. I'm making this my spot to share the delicious things that I bake up in my kitchen. I'm not a professional (but wish I was).

I will post some of the recipes when I feel that I am not infringing on any copy righted material. I will always post where I found the recipe just in case someone wants to make bread (or any other delicious goodie) too.

High Fiber Flax Bread

This bread was supposed to be a 10 Grain Bread using a recipe from Healthy Bread in 5 Minutes a Day. So the recipe called for a 10 Grain hot cereal and my mommy brain accidentally bought a high fiber hot cereal instead. So I used it anyway and the result was quite tasty!

All of my ingredients together before adding the water. You can see the all purpose flour, white whole wheat flour, high fiber cereal, yeast, salt and vital gluten all in beautiful little piles.
