Deluxe Flaxseed Buns
Raise your hands if you love bread in the morning. These Deluxe Flaxseed buns are one of my favorite bread recipes. They are so easy to make – in fact everything is made in only one bowl.
That means very little cleaning, no kneading the dough for hours and most importantly NO Fingers covered in sticky dough.
The truth is, I love anything that’s home baked – but I don’t love the mess I have to clean up after baking. And that’s what’s great about this recipe – apart from the great taste and texture of course. I don’t have to make a mess of the kitchen but I still get amazing homemade bread.
What’s great about this recipe:
- super easy to make – requires no kneading and won’t get dough everywhere
- can be made in advance and frozen
- very healthy
Another thing I like about this bread recipe is, that you can always add extra things if you want – I like to mix it up sometimes, by adding sunflower seeds, chia seeds or sprinkling the top with sesame seeds. That makes it feel and taste like a completely different recipe, but it is still just as easy to make.
This recipe is for a large portion – because they are freezer friendly. I sometimes like to freeze half right after they have cooled. That way I have extra in the freezer for those mornings where I need it to be easy and accessible.
