Seeded Bread

This machine-made bread is a super-satisfying bread that bakes into a light-textured loaf. I stuffed this bread with nuts and seeds that is excellent for toasting.

 Ingredients:
1 cup water
2 tbs honey
1 tsp salt
2 tbs coconut oil
1 tbs butter, melted
1/2 cup whole wheat
2 1/2 cups bread flour
2 tbs active dry yeast
2 tbs chopped walnuts
2 tbs sunflower seeds
2 tbs pumpkin seeds
1 tsp poppy seeds
1 tsp sesame seeds

Directions:
In a bread machine pan, add the first 8 ingredients in the order listed above. Select the dough setting and press start. Before the last 5 minutes of kneading, add the rest of the ingredients. Let the machine finish its cycle.
Meanwhile, butter a 9” x 5” loaf pan and set aside
After the dough has risen the first time, remove and shape into the size of the loaf pan and place dough into the prepared loaf pan. Spray some oil over the dough to prevent sticking. Cover with plastic wrap and let the dough rise for 40 minutes or until double in size.
 
Preheat oven to 375°. Before baking, brush with some water and sprinkle 2 tbs of rolled oats on top. Bake on the center rack of the oven for 35 to 40 minutes until the bread is golden brown and the bottom sounds hollow when tapped with a finger. Immediately remove from the pan and transfer to rack to cool before slicing.
