Commercial bread is made so well now by both independent bakeries and supermarket bakeries, that making bread at home has declined. Until now. Although this wholemeal country loaf is relatively simple, it has ten times the flavour of any commercial brand I have tried. Follow this recipe at home and I guarantee perfect results. Come on, let's get baking.......

255g Wholemeal Wheat flour

125g High Grade White flour

215mls Warm Water 25 - 40 degrees C

35g Sunflower seeds toasted

35g Pumpkin seeds toasted

2 heaped teaspoons of breadmakers yeast ( yeast + bread improvers* )

1 tsp Pink Salt

1 tbsp Melted Honey

1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

* In the supermarket you can buy yeast granules for breadmaking. You can also buy breadmakers yeast which has bread improvers added to it. These bread improvers will make the bread lighter and keep it fresh for longer. This wholemeal country loaf is certainly better made with this style of yeast.
