Whole Wheat Multi-Seeds Bread

Recently i got a pack of mixed seeds from an organic shop,i got hooked with those healthy seeds and i started adding those mixed seeds nowadays while making my breads..But once that seeds packet got finished, i prepared myself a mixed seeds with flax seeds, pumpkin seeds which i saved and roasted it for snacking also with white and black sesame seeds..I went for a whole wheat flour along with these mixed seeds and chilly flakes to make out this healthy bread, loved this healthy bread along with cheese spread and enjoyed having this bread also along with soups...This bread was super crunchy coz of the seeds i used for..Pumpkin seeds are excellent source of magnesium and phosphorus also good source of iron while flax seeds have excellent benefits of lower cholresterol and blood pressure and finally the sesame seeds are rich in calcium, iron and many other health benefits..This bread goes fantastic along with a warm thick soup, just dip the bread slices and enjoy the soup, i do this sort of breads to enjoy together along with any sort of soups while its winter but anyhow i love this bread along with Velouté de Poireaux and with cold soups while its hot....

Hi Priya,
As usual...an interesting and gorgeous looking recipe from u....but just one clarification....is is 2 tablespoon or 2 teaspoon active dry yeast...because as far as some recipes that i have read & tried, they mention teaspoons for dry yeast and tablespoon for fresh yeast...(e.g) 2 teaspoon of active dry yeast or 2 tablespoon of fresh yeast)....

Lovely bread, looks awesome.

Shabitha Karthikeyan said...

Gorgeous bread Priya..will try it out !!!

Priya said...

@Veeanoo..

As i used whole wheat flour, i went for 2tbsp active dry yeast..i can understand ur doubt, coz some of the bread goes for bread flour along with whole wheat flour or either all purpose flour with whole wheat flour, in that case we go for 2tsp of active dry yeast..Hope i cleared ur doubt..
