Triple Seed and Oat Super Healthy New Year Bread
Happy 2017!! If you are anything like me you will be trying to cut back a little after the excesses of the holiday period. Ok then it's just me (sigh). You will still love this bread which is bursting with energy, health and more importantly taste. I give you, the very splendid, three seed, oat and honey bread!
It really has everything. 40% less salt, pumpkin, sunflower, mustard seeds, honey and healthy oats!
Let's get stuck in
You will need
300 grams of strong white flour
200 grams of wholemeal flour
100 grams of oats
60 grams of sunflower seeds
40 grams of pumpkin seeds
2 teaspoons of black mustard seeds
380mls of tepid water
A right big squirt of honey
A glug of rapeseed or olive oil
6 grams of salt
7 grams of quick action yeast
To make
Toast your pumpkin and sunflower seeds lightly for a couple of minutes on a medium heat to make them taste toasty awesome.
Soak your oats in the tepid water for twenty minutes
Measure out your wholemeal and regular flour as well as your yeast, salt and sprinkle your mustard seeds in too.
After the twenty minutes add the oil and honey to your soaky oaty mix.
Then the flours and the toasted seeds join the big soaky, oaty party! Now give everything a mini knead inside your big bowl
Cover and leave your dough to sit for an hour
Give it another knead for five minutes (you don't have to if you hate kneading just flatten it and fold it back up) then cover and leave again
Forty odd minutes later and you should have a big mama like this
Get your oven on at 200 degrees and fold your dough into a big fat cigar, place it on a baking tray
Once the oven is hot enough slash the top and bake for thirty minutes!!
After which you will pull this out, let it cool on a cooling rack
Now slice it.
Have it with your favourite things!! Or just have it straight!! Yum!!!
Enjoy!
Thanks for introducing a healthy bread.
Good health to you and you family.
It's a pleasure! Good health to you and yours!!
Oh, this looks amazingly delicious! I bet I could eat the loaf once toasted and heavily buttered. LOL (That just takes the health of it, doesn't it?)
I didn't like to ruin it but that's exactly how I like it too... Ssshhh!!
This is a gorgeous loaf!
Why thank ya, it is indeed!!!
I love recipes that have precise measuring terms like "a right big squirt" and "a glug". The bread looks delicious.
Hehe they are great aren't they! Those are the ones that I try to describe the precise action! Thank you!
Looks delicious!
Cheers! IThe toasted seeds make it awesome. It smells a bit like honey nut cereal!
Like Crunchy Nut Cornflakes? I love those!
Yeah exactly like those, I don't know if it's something to boast about or hide, I love them too!
:)
Thank you for posting @meesterboom. This sounds scrumptious....yes the toasted seeds sound like a real plus and the mustard seeds must give a bit of a tang...do they not.
Looking forward to having this recipe available for baking day.
All the best to you and yours. Cheers.
They do indeed give it a tang but as a minor character to the toasted seeds!! I do hope you try it!
And all the best to you and yours too!
I hope to be able to beak bread with you some day!
Ah that would be amazing wouldn't it! Me too! :O)
