Ingredients

• 0.75 cup Water
• 0.33 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 3 tablespoons Honey
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup Whole wheat flour
• 0.25 cup Rolled oats
• 0.33 cup Cooked quinoa
• 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 teaspoons Bread machine yeast
• 0.25 cup Chopped dried cranberries
• 0.25 cup Chopped walnuts
• 0.25 cup Sunflower seeds

Directions

Step 1

Add water, applesauce, honey, and vanilla extract into the bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Typically, liquids go in first.

Step 2

Sprinkle the all-purpose flour and whole wheat flour over the liquid ingredients, ensuring the flour completely covers the liquid.

Step 3

Add the rolled oats, cooked quinoa, and ground flaxseed over the top of the flour mixture.

Step 4

Sprinkle the salt and bread machine yeast on opposite sides of the flour layer to avoid direct contact.

Step 5

Secure the bread machine pan in place and select the basic or whole grain bread setting. Choose the desired crust color (light or medium is recommended). Start the machine.

Step 6

When the bread machine signals for add-ins, typically during the kneading cycle, add the dried cranberries, chopped walnuts, and sunflower seeds.

Step 7

Once the bread machine completes its kneading, rising, and baking cycles, carefully remove the pan and let the bread cool for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8

Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for 2–3 days.
