2 cups warm water ( 105° to 115°) |
2/3 cup sunflower seeds |
1/2 cup honey |
1/3 cup wheat bran |
1/3 cup pumpkin seeds, finely chopped |
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons vegetable oil |
2 teaspoons salt |
6 to 7 cups whole wheat flour |

Add sunflower seeds, honey, bran, pumpkin seeds, oil, salt, and 4 cups flour; beat with a wooden spoon until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to make a soft dough. 2. Place dough in a greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85°), free from drafts, 1 hour or until doubled in bulk. 3. Punch dough down; shape into a ball. Return to greased bowl; cover and repeat rising procedure 45 minutes. Punch dough down, and turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Let rest 10 minutes. 4. Divide dough in half, shaping each into a loaf. Place in 2 greased 8 1/2- x 4 1/2- x 3-inch loaf pans. Cover and repeat rising procedure 45 minutes. Bake at 350° for 35 minutes or until loaves sound hollow when tapped. Remove bread from pans immediately; cool on wire racks. |
