Ingredients

  • 300 grams Bread flour
  • 150 grams Whole wheat flour
  • 50 grams Rolled oats
  • 30 grams Sunflower seeds
  • 30 grams Pumpkin seeds
  • 10 grams Salt
  • 7 grams Active dry yeast
  • 330 milliliters Warm water
  • 15 grams Honey
  • 15 milliliters Olive oil
  • 1 large Egg (for egg wash)
  • 15 milliliters Milk (for egg wash)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine bread flour, whole wheat flour, rolled oats, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and salt.

Step 2

In a separate small bowl, mix the warm water, honey, and active dry yeast. Let sit for 5-10 minutes until frothy to activate the yeast.

Step 3

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the yeast mixture along with the olive oil.

Step 4

Mix the ingredients together until a shaggy dough forms. Then turn the dough out onto a floured surface.

Step 5

Knead the dough for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Alternatively, use a stand mixer with a dough hook for 5-6 minutes.

Step 6

Place the kneaded dough into a lightly greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 60 minutes or until doubled in size.

Step 7

Once risen, punch down the dough and turn it onto a floured surface. Divide the dough into small, golf-ball-sized pieces to create the cobblestone effect.

Step 8

Lightly grease a round or oval baking dish and arrange the dough balls snugly in the dish, leaving minimal gaps between them.

Step 9

Cover the dish with a kitchen towel and let the dough balls rise again for 30-40 minutes until puffed and touching each other.

Step 10

Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).

Step 11

In a small bowl, whisk the egg with milk to make the egg wash. Brush the top of the risen dough balls with this mixture for a golden, glossy finish.

Step 12

Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped.

Step 13

Remove from the oven and let cool in the baking dish for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 14

Serve warm with butter or enjoy as a side to your favorite soups and stews.
