Ingredients

• 1.25 cups Water
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
• 2 cups Bread flour
• 0.25 cups Sunflower seeds (shelled, unsalted)
• 2.25 teaspoons Instant dry yeast

Directions

Step 1

Gather all ingredients and ensure they are measured precisely for the best results.

Step 2

Add the water (room temperature or lukewarm), honey, and unsalted butter to the bread machine pan.

Step 3

Sprinkle the salt evenly over the liquid ingredients.

Step 4

Add the whole wheat flour and bread flour on top of the liquid ingredients. Ensure the flour completely covers the water to prevent premature yeast activation.

Step 5

Sprinkle the sunflower seeds evenly over the flour.

Step 6

Create a small well in the center of the flour (without reaching the liquid) and add the instant dry yeast into this well.

Step 7

Secure the pan in the bread machine and close the lid.

Step 8

Select the basic or whole wheat bread cycle, depending on your machine model. Set the crust preference (light, medium, or dark) as desired.

Step 9

Start the machine and allow it to work its magic. The process typically takes around 3 hours, including kneading, rising, and baking.

Step 10

Once the bread machine signals that the cycle is complete, carefully remove the pan (use oven mitts if necessary).

Step 11

Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 12

Slice and serve as desired. Enjoy your Midnight Sun Bread!
