Re: Dunedain Lembas Bread Experiment

I agree that it's a little more rustic looking than Elven bread would probably be. I think for my next try I'll substitute more ground flax for the oats. They contain similar amounts of carbs, but the ground flax is actually more calorically dense due to a higher fat content. They probably won't kee...
