Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ cups warm water

  • 1 egg

  • 1 ½ tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds

  • 3 ¾ cups whole wheat flour

  • 1 ½ teaspoons salt

  • 3 teaspoons active dry yeast

  • cooking spray

  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted, or more as needed

Directions

  1. Place warm water, egg, olive oil, honey, molasses, chia seeds, whole wheat flour, salt, and yeast into a bread machine in the order listed by the manufacturer. Run Dough cycle. Remove dough from the machine after the cycle is done, about 1 hour 30 minutes.
