Rustic

Another great idea by 5 aday catering

There is nothing more comforting than the smell of fresh warm bread baking in the oven.  Now I’m a sucker for bread, but with all the additional salt, sugar and additives added to bread why not make your own?

This recipe is a seeded wholemeal loaf, and goes fantastic with homemade soup – why not check out my previous post and try my Broccoli and blue cheese soup?

What you will need:-

500g Wholemeal Flour

2 tsp Salt

1 x 7g dried yeast

Mixture of seeds (I use 50g sesame seeds, 50g poppy seeds & 125g sunflower seeds)

Water

Mix the flour, salt, yeast, water, poppy seeds  & sunflower seeds in a bowl and mix well.  Turn out on a floured surface and need the dough of 7-10 mins, put back in a clean bowl and prove for 2 hours until double in size.

Line a tray with baking parchment paper, turn out the dough on to a floured surface again and knock back the dough, shape the dough into your preferred shape, roll through the sesame seeds, place on the tray and prove for a further hour.

Heat your oven to 220c, criss-cross the top of the dough, bake for 30 mins. Turn out onto a wire rack to cool.
