For a richer flavor, try using brown butter instead of softened butter.
Toast the flax seeds lightly in a dry pan before adding them for an intensified nutty taste.
If you prefer a softer crust, brush the top of the loaf with melted butter immediately after removing it from the bread machine.
This recipe also works well with other types of seeds, such as pumpkin seeds or sesame seeds.

    My bread machine doesn't have an alert for adding ingredients, so I just added the sunflower seeds about halfway through the kneading cycle. Worked perfectly!

  • Dora Wunsch

    I added a tablespoon of molasses to the recipe and it gave the bread a nice, subtle sweetness. Will definitely make this again!

  • Adeline Mraz

    This bread is fantastic! The combination of flax and sunflower seeds gives it a wonderful texture and flavor. I've made it several times now and it always turns out perfect.

    I love how easy this recipe is to follow. The bread is so much better than anything I can buy at the store. My family devours it!
