Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams Whole wheat flour
- 200 grams All-purpose flour
- 50 grams Sunflower seeds
- 50 grams Pumpkin seeds
- 25 grams Chia seeds
- 25 grams Flaxseeds
- 25 grams Sesame seeds
- 7 grams Dry yeast
- 350 ml Warm water
- 1.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, flaxseeds, sesame seeds, and salt. Mix well.
In a separate bowl or measuring cup, dissolve the dry yeast and honey in the warm water. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
Add the yeast mixture and olive oil to the dry ingredients. Mix until a soft, tacky dough forms.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and allow it to rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
Punch down the dough to release the air and shape it into a loaf. Place the shaped dough into a lightly greased loaf pan.
Cover the loaf pan with a damp cloth and let the dough rise again for 30-40 minutes, or until it has doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing. Enjoy your homemade seedy bread!
