Brown Seed Bread


Brown Seed Loaf
Ingredients:
  • 3 1/2 cups (875 mls ) of brown bread flour
  • 1 sachet instant yeast
  • 1 Tsp (5 mls) salt
  • 2 Tbsp (30 mls) honey or golden syrup - I used maple syrup flavour
  • 4 Tbsp (60 mls) cooking oil
  • 1/2 cup (125 mls) seeds - I used sunflower, poppy, sesame and linseeds
  • +/- 2 cups (500 mls) luke warm water

How to:
  1. Mix the seeds and yeast into the flour 
  2. Add the syrup/honey and oil to the flour
  3. Add as much water as is needed to make a dough
  4. Turn it out onto a floured surface and knead until it is smooth and elastic
  5. Set aside in a covered dish to prove
  6. When it has doubled, knock back and knead again
  7. Place in a well-oiled or buttered loaf tin
  8. When the loaf has risen to the top of the tin, bake at 180 deg C, until golden, it should sound hollow when tapped.

Enjoy!
