1 tbsp honey
3 cups sprouted whole wheat flour, plus more for dusting
1 tsp fine sea salt
Chef's tip
Season to taste - salt substitutes can taste bitter in larger amounts, so start with less.
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, plus more for the bowl and pan
2 tbsp ground flaxseed
1 tbsp rolled oats, for topping (optional)

Instructions

1
Combine the warm water, yeast, and honey in the bowl of a stand mixer (or a large mixing bowl). Stir briefly and let stand for 5–8 minutes, until the surface is foamy and the mixture smells yeasty.
2
Add the sprouted whole wheat flour, salt, olive oil, and ground flaxseed to the yeast mixture. Mix on low speed with the dough hook for 2 minutes, then increase to medium and knead for 6–8 minutes, until the dough is smooth, slightly tacky, and pulls cleanly away from the sides of the bowl. (To knead by hand: turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 10 minutes, until smooth and elastic.)
