Special Bread - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3 cups flour
    1 cup unbleached flour
    1 cup wheat bran
    1 cup oat bran
    1/3 cup sesame seeds
    1/3 cup poppy seed
    1/3 cup barley
    1/2 - 1 cup sunflower seeds
    3 tablespoons canola oil
    4 tablespoons honey
    2 tablespoons molasses
    1 cup skim milk
    2 cups water
    2 teaspoons salt
    4 teaspoons dry yeast
Preparation
    Spread sunflower seeds on dry surface and roll with rolling pin just enough to break them, not crush them.
    Mix all liquid ingredients in a medium saucepan.
    Heat until warm.
    Turn off heat and add dry yeast but do not stir.
    After it has sat for 5 minutes.
    stir until mixed.
    While waiting for the liquids (5 minutes.) mix all of your dry ingredients together.
    Form a well in the middle.
    Gradually add and stir with wooden spoon.
    Keep an extra cup of warm water near.
    Add if needed.
    Dough must stay moist and sticky-not dry.
    Pour mixture onto a dry floured surface and knead for 5 minutes.
    Add flour as needed but dough must stay soft.
    Form a large ball and divide in two pieces.
    Shape into loaves and place into regular size loaf pans.
    Let rise for 1-1 1/2 hrs.
    Bake at 375 degrees F for 45 minutes.
    or until pulling away from sides.
    Do not raise the dough 2 times.
    Also do not preheat oven.
    This is a dense bread, but very moist.
    Try it fresh from the oven with spreadable honey.
