Ingredients

  1. 1 cupwhite bread flour
  2. 2 cupswholewheat flour
  3. 1/4 cuphoney
  4. 1 1/2 teaspoonscoffee
  5. 2 tablespoonsunsweetened cocoa powder
  6. 1 teaspoonsalt
  7. 2 tablespoonssugar
  8. 3/4 cupwarm water
  9. 2 teaspoonsinstant yeast powder
  10. 1 cupmixed seeds

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Place all the ingredients in the bread machine in the order suggested by your manufacturer (mine layers the liquid first and yeast last)

  2. 2

    Set machine to dough and let it do its job

  3. 3

    Once it's done, remove the dough. You can then put it into a bread pan that has been greased or you can make a round loaf or you can plait as I did in the photo. If you want to plait, cut the dough into 3 with a large knife. On a lightly floured surface, roll each piece into a sausage and then plait.

  4. 4

    Sprinkle seeds on top of loaf and spray with a bit of water to keep moist. Cover and leave it in a warm place to rise for an hour

  5. 5

    Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius and bake for approximately 40 minutes in the middle shelf. Check on the bread at 35 minutes to ensure the crust isn't getting too dark.

  6. 6

    Allow to cool before slicing

If you feel it's too sweet with the honey and the sugar, cut down on honey. Not sugar. The bread needs both the sugar and the salt in order to give a good raise
