This delicious seedy bread recipe, adapted from Brot-Bernd Armbrust
©angiesrecipes, is an alternative to your usual white bread. It is a firm, dense bread, but with great taste and packed with flavours. It is particularly good served with homemade nut butter, great as a sanwich or with salads. If you enjoy nutritious real bread, you will love this.

- Place rye flakes and seeds in a bowl. Pour in 200 ml boiling water. Stir until well mixed and leave it aside, covered, for 2-3 hours.
- Dissolve the fresh yeast with 300ml lukewarm water in the mixing bowl. Add in soaked mixture, flours, salt and rye starter. Stir at slow speed for 5 minutes, then increase the speed and knead for a further 4 minutes.
- Transfer the dough onto a floured work surface. Cover with a towel and proof for about 30 minutes. Fold and stretch the dough every 10 minutes.
- Divide the dough into two portions and form each into a boule or baton. Brush the loaves with water and coat with sesame seeds. Place them in a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Cover and proof for 30 minutes. Dust the bread with a little flour and slash the top.
- At the same time, fill a baking tray with some water and place it at the bottom of the oven. Preheat the oven to 240C/475F. Once the oven has reached the desired temperature, remove the water and place the bread in the middle of the hot oven and baked for 35-40 minutes.

When are you going to start selling your breads??
You´re sourdough breads are always so gorgeous Angie! Perfect crusts, and so full of ingredients I love!
Perfect loaf of bread!
How fabulous, Angie! Love breads that are chock full of grains. They taste divine when toasted!
I can almost hear the crustiness when you slice through the bread. Perfect bread!
Such a hardy, dense bread... I am inclining more towards these type of breads now, healthier than fluffy light ones. Looks very nice, Angie.
Okay , I'll drop by later to get one of that wonderfully delicious rye bread :D Your bread looks perfectly-baked , Angie !
Not too bad that bread. Looks great!
yummy
Wat a prefectly baked bread, looks absolutely stunning and incredible..
Hi Angie, I just love all your healthy loaves of bread, they all looks so delicious!
I love your bread!.....i want to try it with a home made jam or a good cheese....i love it!......Abrazotes, Marcela
I like the crust, so crunchy!
What a healthy bread!I 'd love it with some peanut butter spread on it!
Kisses!
Looks so rustic and inviting...YUM!
What a beautiful loaf, Angie! I love breads rich with nuts and seeds. When does you bakery open? :)
I just ate a piece of plain ol' white bread with peanut butter for dinner. Wish I had had a slice of this bread!
Fantastic! I just posted a bread full of seeds too. Your loaf looks amazing!
What a fabulous and healthy loaf !!!! Hope I can have these bread for breakfast.
Love that it's dense, real - there's crunch - there's flavor. I am in the mood for this - nothing airy or summery right now. Just dark, warm goodness.
Beautiful bread Angie!
Te ha quedado delicioso y lindo pan saludable me encanta,abrazos y abrazos.
We love Rye bread; I made a multi-grain loaf this weekend with rye flour added. Your breads are so tempting; I wish I lived next door, XOXO
What a gorgeous loaf, Angie. I don't know how to make a sourdough starter though... do you have a link on where I can get info on how to make that?
This loaf of bread looks so beautiful and tasty. Love the rustic look and all the healthy goodness in it. Crunch!
I'd like to slather a big blog of almond butter on the bread while it's still hot out of the oven.
Perfectly nutritious loaf!
A while ago i made a bread like this and loves it but then it was from the book from paul Hollywodd this looks so yumm too.
Ultimate clicks ......the grains in the laof makes it look so beautiful...
What a great looking loaf, especially spread with the nut butter.
I love a hearty dense bread and have never been a big fan of those white slices :) Homemade nut butter and nutty bread - sounds like a complete meal to me! Another beautiful loaf Angie.
That's a gorgeous loaf of bread, Angie! It must be really tasty with all the seeds in there. I also like how you have pressed all those sesame seeds on the top....lovely!
I'll take a loaf, sliced please, for my lunch sandwich today, it looks fabulous and transports me back to the wonderful bread I ate years ago when working in the Swiss Alps :)
You make the most beautiful breads, Angie! This looks so wholesome and pretty easy. Perfect for sandwiches!
What a beautiful bread, I love all of the delicious seeds you used!!
i know i would love this bread too!
Lovely bake, looks superb..
Lovely crust on the bread!
I'm going to have to quit pinning these and start making them. They always look so good. I did a beer cheddar bread today but, it was quite heavy, yours don't look heavy at all.
I love rye bread, so full of flavour, rustic and nutritious. I could live of a bread like this alone for ages!
Oh, Angie, this is the best kind of bread! The seedier, the better! I wish I had a loaf in my kitchen :)
It looks so nice and crusty--and crusty bread is my favorite kind of bread!
beautiful! i bet it made your house smell wonderful!
BEAUTIFUL!
The bread looks absolutely lovely and so soft inside!
This sounds so good! If you pop over to my blog I've got a little award for you!

A nice bread full of seeds is in my favorites. Always impressed with your baking creations. Looks delish!
You keep tempting me with all these lovely breads - I wish you could come over here and give us some classes.
Your loaves always look better and more nourishing than anything I see in a bakery or otherwise Angie :).
Angie, you must be baking all the time. This looks like a winner, too!
Seedy breads are my favorite Angie! This is so rustic and crusty looking - I bet it's great toasted or made into grilled cheese.
I can't get over how good your loaves always look!! You are such a great baker... I always make the same type of bread... so boring compared to you :0!
Angie, this bread looks so pretty and I love all the seeds in it...they sure gives the bread a nutty flavor and lovely texture...yum!
Thanks for the recipe and hope you are enjoying your week :)
Wish I had a piece of this bread right now! Can I order a loaf? Delicious!
Gorgeous as always Angie. Rye flakes, will have to look for those, not sure if I've seen them. You know how much bread and me love each other. Hope you are having a wonderful week.

You are such a skilled bread baker, Angie..all of your breads could be part of any Artisan Bakery or 5-star restaurant ..in the world! I love combos of seeds on breads and wish I had that loaf for a sandwich tomorrow!
This is a beautiful and healthy loaf. I gotta get some more rye flour to make this. :)
Angie this is one tasty and healthy loaf of bread! Great color as well!
Drool! You make me want to churn up some butter and chow down. Such an amazing looking loaf of bread Angie!
Wow Angie your bread is gorgeous! I love all the ingredients and so this wouldn't last very long in my house. Thanks for sharing.
This looks fabulous spread with nut butter! Perfect for breakfast.
I just love seeded bread. This looks awesome, I have no doubt that I would demolish all of this loaf in no time flat! haha
Wow Angie, this bread is the perfect springtime treat!
It looks so crunchy and tasty perfect for breakfast with butter and jam:)
Your photos are so gorgeous! I love a slice of crusty bread with nut butter, yum.
Love the rustic looks of this rye bread! you have tempted me to go and buy rye flour :)
I love to have some to spread with butter, yum yum!
You bread looks delicious. We buy a seven seed bread that sounds similar. One of our favorite snacks is to toast a slice, spread it with crunchy peanut butter and hot pepper jelly.
I'm always so impressed by your beautiful loaves and this one is no exception, just gorgeous. The crumb looks incredible and the inside looks delightful.
I love rye bread! My childhood favorite! With multi seeds especially. I am yet to conquer the yeast breads though, so I am pinning this to my Bread pinboard!
This looks so good. I've been thinking of baking rye bread, so I might give this a go:)
There's nothing like fresh baked bread - looks great!
This bread looks wonderful, I love the seeds that you have added.
I love everything about this bread!
You can consider to open a bakery shop just selling all your healthy bread., I wish you can open one at my area, so I can buy everyday for breakfast , hehehe..
Oh goodie...goodie...goodie, the crust of your bread looks amazing! Simply beautiful.
Kristy
Beautiful wholesome bread Angie, would love this for my breakfast ;-)
the homemade nut butter sounds delicious, I bet they make a really great pair!
You are definitely a bread maven Angie. This loaf looks perfectly crispy and chewy. My mouth is watering!
Angie, you rule in the world of breads my friend. Hands down! Another spectacular loaf and gorgeous pics as always.
chow! Devaki @ weavethousandflavors
This bread reminds me so much of my childhood in Germany! I miss German bakeries and their wonderful bread so much. It's beautiful. I might have to give this a try! Thank you for the recipe.
Love your breads! I have been into bread making myself lately. Love all the whole-grain and healthy ones. :)
Your rye loaf looks gorgeous. I already add pumpkin, sunflower and flaxseeds to my rye sourdough, but had not though of rye flakes or even oats, so, will try that next week. The flax seeds are a recent addition. I soak them overnight and it gives a lovely texture to the bread.
The bread is baked to perfection and lovely little packing! I bake bread sometimes and i wanna try this one for my husband who loves multi grain ones...
