Wheat Bread With Whole Grains And Seeds Recipes

100% WHOLE WHEAT BREAD WITH NUTS AND SEEDS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl combine all ingredients. Mix until you have a fairly shaggy dough. Let it rest for 20 minutes, covered. Then, knead the dough until it is fairly smooth. Allow the dough to rise, covered, for two hours, until it is nearly doubled in bulk.
• Gently deflate the dough (I just pressed down on it with my fingertips about ten times). Shape it into a log and place it into a lightly greased 8 1/2" x 4 1/2" bread pan. Cover the pan with a clear shower cap (or lightly greased plastic wrap) and let it rise for another 2 hours, until the dough has crowned 1" to 2" over the rim of the bread pan.
• Bake the bread in a preheated 350 degree oven for 40 minutes. (Mine was done at about 35 minutes, so make sure not to over bake). Place a piece of aluminum foil over the top of the pan for the final 20 minutes of baking to make sure the top crust doesn't burn.

SEEDED WHOLE-GRAIN QUICK BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.
• Combine sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, flaxseed and sesame seeds in a dry medium skillet; toast over medium heat, stirring, until lightly brown and starting to pop, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Reserve 2 tablespoons of the seed mixture in a small bowl; transfer the remaining seeds to a large bowl. Add flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt to the large bowl; whisk to combine. Whisk eggs in a medium bowl, then stir in buttermilk, oats, oil and honey (or maple syrup). Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients; stir and fold together until combined. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan. Sprinkle with the reserved seeds.
• Bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean, 45 to 55 minutes. Let cool in the pan for about 30 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

HEARTY MULTIGRAIN SEEDED BREAD

Steps:

• Mix warm water and sugar together in a bowl until sugar is dissolved; stir in yeast. Set aside until a creamy foam starts to form, about 5 minutes.
• Combine bread flour, whole wheat flour, coconut oil, and salt in a food processor; pulse 4 times. Add chia seeds, wheat germ, flax seeds, millet, 1 tablespoon hemp seeds, 1 tablespoon sunflower seeds, and 1 tablespoon oats; pulse until incorporated.
• Pour yeast mixture over flour mixture in the food processor; process until a dough ball forms, about 1 minute.
• Turn dough into a well-oiled large bowl and cover with a damp towel; allow to rise in a warm area until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Punch dough down and knead a few times. Form dough into an oblong shape and place in a greased bread pan. Lightly press the remaining hemp seeds, sunflower seeds, and oats onto the loaf. Cover with a damp towel and let rise in a warm area for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake in the preheated oven until cooked through and crust is lightly browned, about 30 minutes. Cool bread in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
