Seeduction Bread Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the yeast, water and 1 teaspoon of the sugar and give it a little stir. Let it sit for about 5 minutes, until it becomes foamy on top.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, mix together the flours, millet, salt, remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and the pumpkin, flax, sunflower, poppy and sesame seeds.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the oil, honey and 2 eggs.
• When the yeast is foamy, add it to the dry mixture, immediately followed by the egg mixture, and stir to combine. Knead for 7 to 10 minutes, until you have a nice smooth dough, adding more flour as necessary.
• Transfer the dough to an oiled bowl, then cover with a clean towel or plastic wrap and let sit at room temperature until doubled in size, 2 to 3 hours. (Alternatively, you can refrigerate the dough overnight and then let it sit at room temperature for about 1 hour before shaping.)
• To make a swirl: Line two baking sheets with parchment. Divide the dough into quarters and roll each into a skinny log about 18 inches long. Coil each log up like a snail. Place on a lined baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough quarters, placing two coils on each sheet at least 4 inches apart. Cover with a towel or plastic wrap and let rise at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Beat the remaining egg with 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl. Brush a light coating of egg wash all over the tops of the loaves and sprinkle with additional seeds as desired. Bake until the loaves are golden brown and have an internal temperature of 190 degrees F. Begin checking for doneness at 28 to 34 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool slightly before serving, or let cool completely before slicing.
• Store any leftovers at room temperature, well wrapped, for several days. Freeze for longer storage.

Steps:

• Pour lukewarm water into a 2-cup measuring cup and sprinkle with yeast. Mix in the honey and let sit about 10 minutes so it gets foamy.
• Put flours, bulgur [or couscous or cracked wheat] and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment and mix a few times, to combine. Pour the oil and cool water into the yeast mixture and then, while the mixer is running, add in a slow and steady stream. Let it run until the dough stops sticking to the outside walls and forms a ball; add 1 to 2 t water if it's not sticky enough to form the ball, or add the same of flour if it looks too wet. Let the mixer run for another minute to knead the dough.
• Remove the dough ball to a greased bowl and flip it around so all sides of the dough get a little greased. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the dough rise in a warm spot for 2 hours.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment or a Silpat liner. Turn the dough out onto a clean work surface, knead a few times and then form into a large flatish oval. Sprinkle the millet and seeds [reserving 3 T pumpkin seeds] over top of the dough, and fold in half. Knead the dough to distribute the millet and seeds evenly. Divide the dough into two and form each into tight round balls.
• Coarsely chop the remaining pumpkin seeds and roll the tops in the chopped pumpkin seeds. (You could also substitute more poppy seeds here). Place the loaves on the prepared baking sheet, cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise for 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• Bake the loaves on the center rack for 30-35 minutes, or until golden and sound hollow when tapped on the bottom. Cool before slicing.

Steps:

• Gently stir together the warm water, molasses, honey and yeast in a large bowl and let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Pour oil into the yeast mixture.
• In a separate bowl, mix together the a. p. flour, whole wheat flour, salt, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, poppy seeds, 2 tablespoons of millet, barley flour, and vital wheat gluten. Stir the flour and seed mixture to the yeast mixture until it pulls together. Turn the dough out of the bowl onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 7-8 minutes, adding additional flour as needed. Place the dough in a large oiled bowl, cover and let stand in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour. Grease a 9 x 13 baking sheet.
• Punch down the risen dough and turn out of the bowl onto a lightly floured surface. Form into a round or oval loaf shape and place onto the prepared baking sheet. Cover the dough and allow to rise until doubled in size again, about 40 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees toward the end of this second rise. Slash the top of the loaf diagonally with a sharp razor blade or serrated knife. Carefully brush with the beaten egg white, and sprinkle with remaining millet seeds over the top.
• Bake in preheated oven until the bread sounds hollow when thumped on the side, 40 - 45 minutes. Prep time includes rising time.

Steps:

• Let bread thaw and rise according to package.
• If in a hurry, just let thaw.
• Preheat oven 375 degrees.
• Brown and drain meat, onions and seasonings.
• Roll 1/2 dough out on a floured surface.
• Spoon meat mixture down the middle.
• Top with cheese and jalepeno peppers.
• Roll in a loaf.
• Repeat with other half of bread dough.
• Place in bread pan and bake for 25 or 30 minutes or until bread is brown.
• Let cool for about 10 minutes, slice and enjoy.
