HEALTHY SEAWEED AND SEED BREAD

Back to seaweed recipe page

Yield: 2 loaves

Ingredients:

1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast

2-1/4 cups warm water

3 tablespoons honey, maple syrup or cane sugar

1 tablespoon sea salt

2 tablespoons olive oil

6 cups whole wheat flour (you may need less)

3/4 cup Bull Kelp Flakes or ¼ cup Bull Kelp powder (source: www.bckelp.com)

4 tablespoons Flax seeds

2 tablespoons Sesame seeds

2 tablespoons Sunflower seeds

2 tablespoons dry Nettle seeds or 1 tablespoons fresh

Note: (grind all seeds course, using a coffee mill) or you can leave whole

Directions

In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in the 2-1/4 cup warm water and 3 tablespoons honey, maple syrup or cane sugar (follow directions on yeast label).

Once the yeast has activated add salt, oil, seeds, bull kelp and 3 cups flour. Stir until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.

Place onto a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.

Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1-1/2 hours.

Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide dough in half. Shape each into a loaf. Place in two greased 9-in. x 5-in. loaf pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30-45 minutes.

Bake at 375° for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown and bread sounds hollow when tapped. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool.

Eat hot with butter!
