Seeded Sourdough Wholemeal Loaf
Ingredients
200g Wholemeal bread flour- I used a Laucke wholemeal mix  I have used 100g rye here and put the extra in as white bread flour. As  long as the total is 500g
200g white bread flour- I used Laucke  bread mix
100g spelt flour
pinch salt
1 teaspoon yeast
1 tablespoon black treacle
150g SD starter I have changed this to 150g as I feel it makes a better bread.
250ml water
50g mixed seeds, whatever you wish
Preparation
Place 250ml water, treacle and yeast into bowl. 2 minutes 30 secs, 37*, speed 2.
Add all the flours, salt and SD starter. Knead approx. 4 minutes.
add seeds and knead for 1 minute.
Place into an oiled bowl to rise, cover and leave until almost double. Fold to knock out air bubbles
Place in loaf tin and let rise again.
Bake at 200* for 30-40 minutes.


I saw this recipe and liked the flavour, but found it dry. I mucked around with it and added the SD starter, and altered the weight of the flours and it seems much better now. You may need to make alterations to it to suit you.

DH is the bread slicer here! He uses an electric knife. I'm left handed and he says I don't cut straight! I'm more than happy for him to slice it though.

I made this loaf again the other day.  This time I put 150g of SD starter in it. It was a much softer bread but still nice.
