KAF honey challah with flax meal recipe?
Does anyone have this recipe? They seem to have removed it from their website. I have so much flax meal I need to use up. Please share if you do. Thanks so much!!!
Second thought, if you have recipes using flaxmeal that you love please feel free to post or link. I dont have many flaxmeal recipes, tried and true, but am getting to like how it works in baking.
I think any loaf could handle the addition of a tablespoon of ground flax.
I buy whole flax seed, grind about 2 weeks worth in a whirly-gig style coffee grinder, and keep the ground meal frozen until I use it up. It still flows when frozen - it does not solidify. about 1/3 cup fits in my grinder. I do that 3 times, so I freeze a cup at a time.
I often put flax meal in smoothies/protein-shakes.
Muffins are another place to easily add. But not pancakes - at least in my experience.
Could this be a similar recipe?

idaveindy: thank you so much! I am emboldened to try a little flaxmeal here and there in my baking now. Opens up so much experimentation. I did not know that flaxmeal does not work so well for pancakes. Who knew!
clazar123: thank you for that link. I found something also, below:
I ended up calling KAF and asking if they still have the recipe on file? They did and they sent it to me! They also have a recipe, 'soft sandwich bread with flax' which is about the same recipe as the challah, the eggs replaced with water. These recipes look quite good, maybe just a tad rich..Will post tomorrow.
