Easy Whole Grain Bread

Submitted by Aimee88

"This recipe is my adaptation from the Grant Loaf in the Food Combining book. I use a wholewheat bread flour with flax and sunflower seeds. This is the easiest bread I have ever made, and it is now our everyday bread. There is no kneading required and it only raises once. I bake about 3-4 loaves per week. It's great as toast! If you like more flax in your diet, add up to a 1/2C of ground flax. You may then want more water."
