OUR DAILY BREAD (BREAD MACHINE)

Steps:

• Place all ingredients, except for the sunflower seeds, into the mixing pan in the order recommended for your brand of breadmaker.
• In our breadmaker we put wet ingredients first, then dry ingredients, then yeast.
• Place sunflower seeds into the fruit and nut dispenser of your breadmaker or, if you don't have a dispenser, keep them aside until later.
• Set breadmaker settings to WHOLEWEAT, MEDIUM (crust), and LARGE (size)- this recipe makes a 1250g loaf.
• If your breadmaker has a fruit and nut dispenser, set it to dispense the nuts eg NUTS YES.
• Press START.
• Check the consistency of the dough during the kneading stage and add a little more water or flour if the dough seems too dry or too wet.
• If you don't have a fruit and nut dispenser, add the sunflower seeds towards the end of the first knead.
• Check loaf again towards the end of the final rise and if necessary, use your hand to form it into a neater shape.
• When the BAKE cycle is finished, remove the loaf from the pan and cool on a rack.
• To give the loaf a nice shiny finish, spray with spray oil while it is still warm.
