Ingredients
8 ounces all purpose flour
8 ounces whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon sea salt
2 teaspoons active dry yeast
8 ounces warm water ( 100* – 120* )
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon honey
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons sesame seeds
2 teaspoons flax seeds
2 teaspoons sunflower seeds
2 teaspoons peptita seeds
Instructions
In a small bowl add the warm water, sprinkle the yeast over the top, whisk and allow to activate for a few minutes. In a seperate small bowl whisk the honey, yogurt and olive oil.
In the bowl of a stand mixer add the flours, salt and seeds. Mix together. Add the yogurt mixture, water and yeast and knead with the dough hook attachment. If dough looks to dry add a tablespoon of water at a time. as needed. If dough looks wet you may add a tablespoon of flour at a time. Sometimes temperature and humidity can effect flour and making a bread dough.
Place the bread dough into a large oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour. After one hour shape the dough in one large loaf and place on a parchment line sheet pan. Cover loosly with a tea towel or plastic wrap and allow to rise 1 hour.
Pre heat oven to 400* Place rack in the center of the oven.
Brush dough loaf with olive oil and sprinkle some seeds on top. Place in pre heated oven and bake for 45- 50 minutes. If bread seems to be browning more on one side rotate the bread. The crust should be golden brown, hard to the touch, and have a good “knock” to it. A good test is placing a thermometer in the bread, the temperature should reach 195* – 200*
Place bread on a rack and allow to cool 15 – 20 minutes before slicing.
Notes
I have also divided this dough into three equal pieces and shaped into baguettes and baked in a Emile Henry baguette pan. I baked 20 minutes with lid on and 10 -15 minutes with lid off.
This dough can also be shaped into rolls, with less baking time..
