    Will frying flaxseed make any difference in its benefits?
    Community Answer
    The beneficial oils in whole flax seed that had been used in baked goods and baked at a temperature of 350 degrees F did not change. No guarantees at higher temperatures. Roast them at 350 degrees F for a little longer than you would at 375 degrees F and you should get the same result.
