How to increase fiber in your bread ?

There are a number of ways that can help increase the fiber content in buns or bread.

1.Use fiber rich flour such as whole-wheat flour/atta. In this case you may need to increase the quantity of yeast by 20% and use a bit more water/oil as this flour is a bit heaver than plain flour.

2. Add additional additives such as flax seed meal . 1 cup of plain flour contains around 3.4 gms of fiber compared to 11 gms in 1 cup of whole meal flour. 1 tbsp. of flax seeds contains around 2 gms of fiber. So an addition of 3 tbsp. of flax seeds to plain flour can help you get similar fiber content as whole meal flour.

3.Use a combination of above 2 as done in the below recipe.

Ingredients

  • flour (unbleached plain flour )
  • flax seeds with water (optional)
  • yeast in warm water +½ tsp. sugar
  • water to knead the dough
  • salt
  • garlic powder
  • Seasoning mix (fresh garlic chives,dried herbs,garlic powder,salt,oil)

Variations

  • You can make variations of this bread with addition of any vegetables or just olives. If you are a vegetarian, you can use butter instead of olive oil.

Storage

  • Store it in an air tight container in refrigerator.

Top tips

  • Always preheat your oven or air fryer.
  • Always reheat your leftovers.
  • If water is too hot or cold, yeast will not activate and double. Also, when yeast is too old it will not work. If it doesn't activate, adding it dough will not help your bread. Make a fresh batch if that happens.
