Healthy Easy Peasy Seed Loaf image

This is a REALLY easy+foolproof loaf to bake. Very healthy as well. I usually bake it in mini loaf tins and freeze it, and take it out the morning I require it - fresh for lunch. This was the first bread I baked and it came out perfect!

Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 1h5m

Yield 3 loaves

Number Of Ingredients 9

560 g bread flour
560 g brown bread flour
80 g natural bran
12 1/2 ml salt
125 ml sunflower oil
125 ml honey (or half honey+half molasses)
450 ml seeds, mixture (linseed, pumpkin, sesame, sunflower)
2 (10 g) packets instant yeast
1 liter lukewarm water

Steps:

  • Grease 3 medium loaf tins or several smaller tins well.
  • Place all the ingredients into a large mixing bowl and mix well to form a smooth, heavy batter.
  • *Note*No need to sift flour.
  • Spoon the batter into tins making them no more than half full, and sprinle some sesame seeds on top.
  • Place the tins in a protected, mildly warm spot and leave to rise until doubled.
  • Bake at 200 deg celcius for 20 mins, lower to 180 degrees celcius and bake for a further 20 mins until browned on the top.
  • Cool in tins for 5 mins then remove onto cooling racks.
  • TIPS: Once cooled, wrap in cling film, and freeze the loaves you do not require immediatly as home made yeast bread does not last long.
  • Adjust time accordingly for smaller tins as they might require less than 1/2 the time.
  • You can use a drop of choc brown colouring if you want really dark brown loaves.
  • You could also sprinkle some wheat into the tins before putting the batter in.
  • The seed mixture is 450ml of what you like.
  • Add the seeds and amounts according to your tastes (maybe try raisins next time)- it's all up to you.
  • Serve with butter/marg or a good spread.
