How to Make Seeded Whole Wheat Bread

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup warm water (105-115°F), 2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast, and 1 tablespoon honey. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
  2. Add 2 cups whole wheat flour, ½ cup all-purpose flour, 1 ½ teaspoons salt, and 1 tablespoon olive oil to the yeast mixture. Stir until a shaggy dough forms.
  3. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, or until smooth and elastic. Add more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, if the dough is too sticky.
  4. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons sunflower seeds, 2 tablespoons flax seeds, and 1 tablespoon sesame seeds.
  5. Incorporate the seeds into the dough by gently pressing them in.
  6. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
  7. Punch down the dough and shape it into a loaf. Place the loaf in a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  8. Cover the loaf pan with plastic wrap and let rise for another 30-45 minutes.
  9. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  10. Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
  11. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
