Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, and salt.
Step 2
Add the water, honey, and olive oil to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough starts to form.
Step 3
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Step 4
Fold in the sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 5
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rest in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
Step 6
Preheat your oven to 220°C (430°F).
Step 7
Punch down the risen dough to release excess gas and shape it into a loaf or your preferred shape.
Step 8
Place the shaped dough onto a parchment-lined baking tray and let it proof for another 30 minutes.
Step 9
Once the dough has risen, place it in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes or until the bread has a deep golden color and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Step 10
Remove from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
