Heat flax seeds in a 2-qt. saucepan over medium until toasted, 2-3 minutes; transfer to a bowl. Add quinoa to pan; heat over medium until toasted, 2-3 minutes. Add 1 cup plus 2 tbsp. water; boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook, covered, until water is absorbed and quinoa is tender, about 25 minutes. Stir in reserved flax seeds; let cool.
Whisk yeast, both flours, and salt in a bowl; transfer to a work surface and make a large well in the center. Whisk honey and 1 1/2 cups water in a bowl and add to well; using your hands, slowly mix dry ingredients into honey mixture until a loose, sticky dough forms. Mix in reserved quinoa mixture and the raisins. Using your hands and a bench scraper to move dough, knead by pulling and folding dough up and onto itself, until puffed and airy, 4-5 minutes. Shape dough into a tight 6" round and drape a damp towel over top; let rest 4 hours.
Lightly dust dough with flour. Knead, by once again pulling and folding dough up and onto itself to incorporate air, until smooth and elastic, about 3 minutes. Shape dough into a tight 6" round; transfer to a lightly dusted baking sheet and chill 1 hour. Arrange racks in lower and top third of oven; place a pizza stone on lower rack. Heat oven to 480°. Shape dough round into a 12"-long oval and pinch ends; transfer to a flour-dusted pizza peel. Lightly dust dough with flour. Use a razor or paring knife to slice a decorative leaf pattern into top of dough, cutting about 1/4" deep. Use a pastry brush to brush dough with water. Slide dough onto pizza stone; bake until bottom of bread is golden brown, about 15 minutes. Transfer bread to upper rack; bake until bread is cooked through, 15-20 minutes more. Let bread cool completely before serving.

A fall fave! We’ve been making this recipe for years and it is so simple. It is so delicious and it makes your house smell amazing. If you like your applesauce sweeter you can add some maple syrup or natural sweetener of choice, but it's naturally sweet on it's own. This is delicious warmed up in a mug as a snack on a chilly evening or added to oatmeal with a dash of apple pie spice for breakfast. It keeps in the fridge for about two weeks and freezes well.
