Ingredients
- 360 ml Warm water
- 2 tbsp Honey
- 2.25 tsp Active dry yeast
- 300 g Whole wheat flour
- 200 g Bread flour
- 50 g Rolled oats
- 30 g Pumpkin seeds
- 30 g Sunflower seeds
- 20 g Chia seeds
- 20 g Flaxseeds
- 1.5 tsp Salt
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, combine the warm water and honey. Stir until the honey has dissolved, then sprinkle in the active dry yeast. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until the mixture becomes frothy.
Step 2
In a large bowl, mix together the whole wheat flour, bread flour, rolled oats, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, chia seeds, flaxseeds, and salt.
Step 3
Pour the yeast mixture and olive oil into the dry ingredients. Mix until a shaggy dough forms.
Step 4
Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic. Alternatively, use a stand mixer with a dough hook for about 5-7 minutes.
Step 5
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
Step 6
Punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf. Place the loaf in a greased 9x5-inch bread pan, and cover it loosely with plastic wrap. Let it rise again for 30-45 minutes or until it has risen just above the edge of the pan.
Step 7
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) during the second rise.
Step 8
Once the dough has risen, bake the bread in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and it sounds hollow when tapped.
Step 9
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
