Multi-grain and seed bread

This was delicious! You can vary the seeds/nuts/grains to your liking.

Multi-grain and Seed Bread

2 2/3 c warm water
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup honey
1 TBSP and 1 tsp salt
2 eggs
2 cup seeds/grains (I used oats, flax seed meal, chia seeds, almond flour, and raw quinoa)

3-4 cups whole wheat flour
1/4 cup vital wheat gluten
2 TBSP instant yeast
1/3 cup dry milk powder
2-3 cups bread flour*

Combine in Bosch (or mixer): water, olive oil, honey, salt, eggs, and 1 cup oats, 1/2 cup flax seed meal, 1/8 cup chia seeds, 1/4 cup almond flour, and 1/4 cup quinoa (adjusting to whichever grains/seeds/nuts you prefer, but around 2 cups). Mix until combined.

Add 1 cup whole wheat flour, vital wheat gluten, yeast, and dry milk powder.  Mix. Continue mixing, adding flour 1 cup at a time, until dough pulls from sides and bottom of bowl. Knead 8 minutes in mixer. Rise, covered, until double. Punch down and shape into 4 round loaves on parchment or shape for 4 loaf pans. Rise. Bake at 375 for about 20 minutes, until browned.
These also freeze well for later use. Thaw on countertop and bake at 375 an additional 10 minutes or until heated and crisp. Serve warm.

*You could use 100% whole wheat as well. My family loves the texture with some bread flour.
