    Step By Step Instructions

    Please scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of the post for ingredient quantities and the full detailed method.

    Step 1 - Prepare The Dough

    Place all ingredients into the Thermomix bowl.

    Use the Kneading function to knead the dough until combined.

    Note: the dough will be VERY sticky - this is normal.

    Step 2 - Prove The Dough

    Place the dough into a ThermoServer and leave it in a warm spot for 30 minutes or until doubled in size.

    TIP: If you don't have a ThermoServer, place the dough into a greased bowl and cover with a tea towel. Leave in a warm spot to rise.

    Step 3 - Bake

    Sprinkle extra seeds over the top of the loaf.

    Bake the bread in the oven for 40 minutes or until the top is golden and crunchy and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped in the centre.

    Expert Tips

    • Allow the dough to rise and almost double in size before baking.
    • The loaf is cooked with the top is golden and crunchy and the loaf sounds hollow when tapped in the centre.
    • Allow to cool for a few minutes in the baking tin before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
    • Store any leftover bread at room temperature wrapped in a clean, dry tea towel (or a bread bag) for up to 3 days.
    • Alternatively, freeze slices of the bread for up to 3 months.

      Thanks for sharing. I was wondering if using the bread maker when it’s particularly hot would still make a great loaf. Will also try thermomix as well when a bit cooler weather

        Yes, it can. I store it sliced and have defrosted a few slices at room temperature overnight or in short bursts of the microwave and even straight into the toaster on the "frozen" setting and they all worked well!

      Hi, I did this bread which I found great and delicious... I did not have poppy seeds, so I replaced by sunflower seeds. I also did not dare to put 500g of water and put less before the dough become very sticky. It turned out great. Thanks for the recipe.
      I am looking for recipe allowing me to have my 30 plant-based ingredients per weeks and with the variety of seeds in this recipe, it is great healthy choice.

      Could you please give an indication on the size of the tin. Having used the size bread tin recommended in he Basis Cookbook for the Multi Grain Loaf I found the tin was no where big enough. The dough was rising over the sides of the bread tin.. Thank you.

        The pan used here is a Pyrex Large rectangular loaf pan which is the regular width and length, but a bit deeper than the cake-loaf pans.
