Ingredients
- 1 cup warm water (105°F to 110°F)
- 1½ tablespoons honey
- 2¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
- 3 cups whole-wheat flour
- 1½ cups unbleached, all-purpose or bread flour
- 2 tablespoons vital wheat gluten
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- ½ cup rolled oats
- ¼ cup hulled sunflower seeds
- ¼ cup flax seeds
- 2 tablespoons wheat germ
- 2 tablespoons flax oil or vegetable oil
- Nonstick cooking spray
Preparation
- Stir together the warm water, honey and yeast in the Cuisinart® mixing bowl. Attach dough hook and let stand until mixture is foamy and bubbly, about 5 to 10 minutes.
- While yeast is proofing, combine flours, vital wheat gluten, salt, oats, seeds and wheat germ in a separate large bowl. Once the yeast mixture proofs, add the flax oil and flour mixture flour to the yeast mixture. Mix on Speed 2 to just combine. Increase to Speed 4 and knead, about 4 minutes. Dough should be smooth and spring back to the touch. If sticky, add 1 tablespoon of the white flour at a time until smooth. Alternatively, if the dough seems too dry, add 1 tablespoon of water at a time.
- Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
