    Flax Buns

    Recipe By :Constance Cole
    Serving Size : 12 Preparation Time 20
    Categories : Breads

    Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
    -------- ------------ --------------------------------
    6 Tablespoons flax seed -- ground
    3/4 cup wheat bran
    1/4 cup soy flour, lowfat
    1/4 cup soy protein isolate
    1/2 cup gluten, wheat
    1/4 cup rice bran
    1/4 cup oat bran
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    1 Tablespoon yeast
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 cup boiling water -- or more if needed
    1/4 cup butter
    1 teaspoon molasses
    1 Tablespoon sour cream
    1 Tablespoon heavy cream

    Combine dry ingredients in bowl. The flax seeds were "heaping tablespoons" when I measured them.

    In the bowl of a mixer, combine water and remaining ingredients. The molasses is to activate the yeast, and gets consumed by it in the preparation.

    Turn on mixer and add dry ingredients slowly. Mix/knead until well combined.

    Let rest for a bit while you prepare pan.

    I used a "roll" pan that holds 12. You shouldn't really need to grease or oil it unless it is very old and tends to stick. A bit of oil on a paper towel would do the trick in that case.

    Divide the dough in 12 portions and roll in balls in your hand. If you don't have a pan as above, a sheet pan would suffice.

    You can let rest/raise while your oven warms.

    Heat oven to 350 F. Bake for 15 minutes, or until browned on bottom, and not too firm.

    I store mine in the fridge in plastic containers, or they could be frozen and taken out as needed (reheat in low oven or microwave, or allow to thaw overnight).

    NOTES : These are very filling rolls.
    Occasionally, I add hempseed flour to the dry mixture.
    Moisture depends on weather and factors regarding your dry ingredients. Water may have to be adjusted accordingly.

    Could probably be baked as a loaf, but I don't have baking times for that. May have to be divided in half to bake in two loaves, just because of the density - haven't checked, and wouldn't like to promise acceptable results.
