Have you ever wanted to make your own wholemeal bread with seeds? Look no further! In this ultimate recipe guide, we will walk you through the step-by-step process of creating a delicious and nutritious loaf of wholemeal bread packed with seeds.

Why Wholemeal Bread with Seeds?

Wholemeal bread with seeds is not only incredibly tasty but also a healthier alternative to conventional white bread. By using wholemeal flour, you retain more nutrients and fiber, which are stripped away during the refining process. Seeds, such as sunflower seeds, flaxseeds, or pumpkin seeds, add a delightful crunch and boost the nutritional value of your bread.

Ingredients

  • 500g wholemeal flour
  • 7g dried yeast
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 300ml lukewarm water
  • 100g mixed seeds (e.g., sunflower, flaxseeds, pumpkin)

Instructions

1. Dissolve the yeast in lukewarm water and allow it to activate for 5 minutes.

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the wholemeal flour, salt, and mixed seeds. Mix well.

3. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the activated yeast mixture.

4. Gradually incorporate the flour into the liquid, mixing with a spoon or your hands until a sticky dough forms.

5. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead it for about 10 minutes, until it becomes smooth and elastic.

6. Place the dough back into the mixing bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for approximately 1 hour or until it doubles in size.

7. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F) and grease a bread tin.

8. Punch down the risen dough to release any air bubbles, then shape it into a loaf and place it into the greased bread tin.

9. Cover the tin loosely with the kitchen towel and let the dough rise for another 30 minutes.

10. Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until it turns golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.

11. Remove the bread from the tin and allow it to cool on a wire rack before slicing.

Tips and Variations

– Feel free to experiment with different combinations of seeds, such as chia seeds, sesame seeds, or poppy seeds, to add extra flavor and texture to your bread.

– For a sweeter taste, you can add a tablespoon of honey or maple syrup to the dough mixture.

– If you prefer a more rustic-looking loaf, you can sprinkle extra seeds on top before baking.

– To make the bread gluten-free, substitute the wholemeal flour with a gluten-free flour blend and adjust the water accordingly.

Now that you have the ultimate recipe for making wholemeal bread with seeds, it’s time to roll up your sleeves and get baking! The aroma of freshly baked bread will fill your kitchen, and you’ll be rewarded with a delicious and wholesome loaf that you can enjoy for breakfast or any time of the day.
