LIQUID INGREDIENTS
- 385 g (1 1/2 cups - 2 tablespoons) of water at a specific temperature depending on your bread maker model. See settings
- 30 ml (2 tbsp) light olive oil
- 30 ml (2 tbsp) maple syrup
- 1 egg, beaten (it must be cold, so straight out of the refrigerator)
DRY INGREDIENTS
- 20 g (30 ml / 2 tbsp) chia seeds *
- 385 g (2 3/4 cups) all-purpose flour "La Merveilleuse"
- 3.5 ml (3/4 tsp) salt
- 1 ml (1/4 tsp) instant yeast (or baking)
PREPARATION
You will maximize your chances of success by using the gram measurements given in the recipe.
- Grind chia seeds in a coffee grinder. Mix all dry ingredients together, except yeast. Set aside.
- Make sure the kneading blade is properly inserted into the bread machine. Place the liquid ingredients in the order above.
- Place the flour mixture on top of the liquids. Make a well in the center and place the yeast (without touching the liquids).
- Start the machine at the appropriate cycle based on your bread machine’s make and model: See settings
- Wait about 2 minutes and then open the lid, scrape the edges with a spatula so that all the flour mixes with the dough.
- Close the lid and let the machine continue its cycle without opening.
- As soon as the cycle is finished, remove the bread (do not leave it in the reheat cycle), unmould and let it cool completely on a wire rack. Wait until the bread is completely cooled before removing the kneading blade.

TIP
* If you use chia seeds that are already commercially ground, the grind is not thin enough and the density is not the same for whole seeds and ground seeds. It is therefore essential to use the measurement in grams and grind your seeds again in a coffee grinder in order to obtain a fine powder.
