Seed Bread - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 1/4 teaspoons yeast
2 1/4 cups water
4 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 cup flax seed
4 tablespoons sesame seeds
2 tablespoons poppy seeds
1/4 cup flax seed meal
1 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons honey
1/3 cup vegetable oil or 1/3 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon sesame oil (optional)

Preparation

Dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup of the warm water.
Let stand for 5-10 minutes.
(You can add a pinch of sugar to aid the yeast.) Combine flours, seeds, salt and flax meal.
Pour remaining 2 cups of warm water, honey and oil in a large bowl.
Add the yeast and then two cups of the flour/seed mixture.
Stir until you have a ragged dough.
At this point you can start kneading your dough.
Add the remaining flour/seed mixture 1- 1 1/2 cups at a time until you have all of it kneaded together evenly.
Place the bread dough in an oiled bowl.
Cover with wax paper sprayed with oil and a damp tea towel.
Place in a warm spot for 1- 1 1/2 hours or until it has doubled in size.
Punch the dough down and divide in two equal portions.
Shape each portion into a bun and place each into an oiled bread pan.
Cover these with the waxed paper and tea towel.
Let rise for an additional 20 minutes.
Place loaves in a preheated 450 degree oven.
After 10 minutes, reduce to 350 degrees and bake for an additional 30 minutes.
Remove from oven and cool on a rack.
