Whole Wheat Bread with Seeds

Today I wanted to try a new pan for sandwich bread. I’ve had whole wheat flour and some packets of mixed seeds in my pantry for a while. So today I decided to prepare the bread with seeds, although it’s not really sandwich bread, but I assure you it’s very good. Excellent even toasted.
It doesn’t require much effort, it’s ready in no time.
Today I didn’t use my homemade sourdough but wanted to try the dried sourdough that you can easily find at the supermarket. And I must say that I still had a good result, although I always prefer to use my sourdough, because it always adds something extra.

  • Difficulty: Very easy
  • Cost: Medium
  • Rest time: 3 Hours
  • Preparation time: 20 Minutes
  • Portions: 4
  • Cooking methods: Oven
  • Cuisine: Italian

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 2 1/2 cups multi-grain flour
  • 1 2/3 cups water
  • 2 teaspoons brown sugar
  • 1 oz dried sourdough
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 3/4 oz salt
  • to taste mixed seeds

Tools

  • Pan for sandwich bread
  • Bowl (large glass)
  • Cover in silicone
  • Rolling Pin in wood

Preparation

  • In a glass bowl pour all the dry ingredients, except the salt. Mix with a fork and gradually add the water.

    Mix again with the fork, until the flour absorbs all the water. Cover with a plate and let rest for 30 minutes.

    To the dough add the oil, the salt, a handful of mixed seeds and knead on the board for a few minutes, just enough to combine the ingredients.

    Let it rest for 15 minutes covered with the bowl and continue turning by folding every 15 minutes for 3 times.

    Then place it in a bowl to rise until doubled, covered inside the turned-off oven.

    After the time has passed, when the dough is nice and puffy, deflate it on the board and roll it out with a rolling pin.

    Roll it up on itself and place it inside the greased sandwich bread pan.

    Cover it well and let it rise until doubled, inside the turned-off oven.

    Then brush it with water, add some mixed seeds and bake in a hot oven at 482°F for about 20 minutes. Then continue baking for another 20 minutes at 374°F.
