Prep: About 1 hour, 50 minutes | Bake: 20-25 minutes | Total: About 2 hours and 15 minutes

Yield: 1 loaf of bread

Ingredients

2 cups whole wheat flour

1 cup rye flour

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 cup spelt flour

1 packet of dry yeast (7-8g)

1-2 tsp salt

1 tsp brown sugar

1 tsp cumin seeds

1 Tbsp nigella seeds

1/2 tsp coriander seeds

2 1/3 cups warm water

5 Tbsp mixed seeds like sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, flax seeds, hemp seeds, and oats plus 2 extra Tbsp of mixed seeds for topping (pre-soaked in water to prevent burning during baking)

This bread recipe was developed specifically for use with our Covered Bread Pan.

Directions

In a large bowl, mix the flours, spices, and salt, incorporating them well.

In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast and sugar in 1/3 cup lukewarm water. Leave aside for a few minutes.

Add the yeast mixture into the flour bowl, add the rest of water, and mix until you obtain a sticky dough.

Knead the dough for about 10 minutes until it becomes uniform, soft, and elastic.

Roll the dough into a ball and place it in a lightly oiled bowl. Cover the bowl with a damp tea towel and set aside (in a warm place) for 1 hour so the dough can rise to around double its size.

Remove the dough from the bowl, add the seeds of your choice, and shape into a loaf shape. Transfer the dough to your Covered Bread Pan.

Drain the pre-soaked seeds from any excess water and place them on top of the dough.

Cover your loaf with the Bread Pan Cover and let it proof for another 30-40 minutes.

In the meantime, preheat the oven to 480º F.

Place the bread on the middle shelf and bake for 20-25 minutes (first 10 minutes with the cover and the remaining time without a cover).

Once baked, set aside to cool down before you cut the bread.

Enjoy with homemade garlic butter or other toppings of your choice!
