Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 tablespoons sunflower seeds
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons sesame seeds
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons poppy seeds
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons flax seeds
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons fennel seeds
  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1 3/4 cups whole wheat flour
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 3/4 - 2 cups sour milk (a bit extra milk for brushing on top of bread) or 1 3/4-2 cups buttermilk (a bit extra milk for brushing on top of bread)

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 375°F
  2. 2
    In a small bowl combine all the seeds and set aside.
  3. 3
    Combine the flours, baking powder, salt, baking soda, and brown sugar in a large bowl. Add all but 2 tablespoons of the seeds.
  4. 4
    Stir the sour milk/buttermilk (recommend using smaller amount and gradually add more milk as needed) into the dry ingredients just to blend (dough will be sticky).
  5. 5
    Turn out dough on to a well floured board and knead about 5 times, just enough to pull it together into a loose ball. (over kneading will make the bread tough).
  6. 6
    Place the dough on a lightly floured baking sheet and mark it with a deep cross across the top, cutting two-thirds to the way through the loaf with a serrated knife.
  7. 7
    Brush with a little milk and sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons of seeds.
  8. 8
    Bake for 35 to 45 minutes or until it sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
  9. 9
    Cool on rack.
