MIXED SEEDS WHOLE WHEAT BREAD

A hearty whole-wheat loaf with extra flavor and texture from a mix of healthy seeds.

INGREDIENTS

– warm water  – granulated sugar – dry yeast – olive oil – bread flour – whole wheat flour

This loaf seems especially appropriate - whole wheat, flecked with a mix of healthy seeds, and packed with flavor. 

In a large bowl, stir sugar into warm water to dissolve. Sprinkle yeast on top and stir in with a wooden spoon. Let sit for 5-10 minutes, until foamy.

1

Stir the olive oil into the yeast mixture. Add 8 ½ ounces bread flour, 6 ⅜ ounces whole wheat flour, seeds, and salt and mix together until a wet dough begins to form.

2

Gradually add the remaining 2 ⅛ ounces (½ cup, spoon and level) whole wheat flour as needed, followed by the remaining 3 tablespoons bread flour as/if needed.

3

Throughout this process, add JUST enough flour to work with the dough without it getting stuck to your hands or your kneading surface. The dough should be somewhat sticky.

4

Lightly oil a bowl about twice the size of the dough and shape dough into a smooth round. Transfer dough to bowl, turning once to coat both sides with oil. Cover with plastic wrap and leave.
