- Why wasn't it crisp enough?
- Steam was missing from the oven. Place a bowl of water in the bottom of the oven, or spray with water at the start of baking.
- Are flaxseeds digestible?
- Yes, if you crush or grind them a little, or if you chew the roll thoroughly!

Instructions
Soak the seeds (sunflower, flax, sesame) in enough water to cover them for 30 minutes. Then drain.
Dissolve the sugar and yeast in the lukewarm water. Leave for 5 minutes to activate.
Mix the flours with the salt. Add the yeast water, oil, and the drained, soaked seeds.
Knead the dough thoroughly (approx. 10 minutes). You will get a slightly sticky, dense dough.
Cover and prove for 45-60 minutes.
Turn onto a floured counter, divide into 8 parts. Shape them into long rolls with pointed ends. Place on a baking tray.
Spray them with water, roll in more seeds (if you like), and let rise for another 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 220°C. Place a bowl of water at the bottom (steam).
Bake the rolls for approx. 20 minutes until dark brown and crispy.
