Grease a rectangular loaf tin and set aside.
Place all ingredients into the Thermomix bowl and knead for 2 mins 30 seconds, Kneading/Interval function.
Note: the mixture will be VERY sticky at this point.
Pour the dough into the greased tin and set aside in a warm place to prove for 30 minutes (or until doubled in size).
Preheat oven to 200 degrees celsius (fan-forced).
Sprinkle extra seeds and pepitas over the top of the loaf.
Bake in the oven for 40-45 minutes or until the loaf sounds hollow when tapped in the centre.
Leave the bread in the loaf tin for 5 minutes and then place onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, wrap the bread in foil and then place into an airtight container.

RECIPE NOTES & TIPS

Use Bakers flour or bread flour for the best results. You 'can' use plain flour, however, your loaf wont have the same texture as it would with Bakers flour.
Mix and match with any of your favourite seeds.
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.
