Ingredients
1 1/2 tsp active dry yeast (1 package)1/2 - 1/3 cup warm water1/2 cup skim milk 1/2 teaspoon salt 2 tbsp honey 1 tbsp nonfat dry milk (optional, but great for texture)3 cups whole wheat flour 1 1/2 tbsp vital wheat gluten5 tbsp ground flaxseed
Directions
Whisk together yeast and water. Let stand 10 minutes.
Heat milk to just above body temperature, stir in salt, honey, and milk powder and let cool to lukewarm.
In a large mixing bowl (I use my stand mixer) whisk together flour, gluten and flaxseed.
Pour in yeast mixture and milk mixture and beat until a fairly smooth dough forms.
Turn out onto a floured surface and knead for 10-15 minutes, until elastic.
Place in an oiled bowl, cover and allow to rise in a warm place for 1 1/2 hours.
Preheat oven to 375F, grease a 1 1/2 Lb loaf pan.
Punch down dough, shape into a loaf and place into the pan, tucking ends under.
Cover and let rise again for 1 hour.
Brush the top of the loaf with milk, bake for 40 minutes.
Cool 10 minutes in the pan, then turn out onto a wire rack and cool completely.
