Instructions
-
Spread sunflower seeds on a dry surface and gently roll with a rolling pin just enough to break them, not crush them.
-
In a medium saucepan, mix all liquid ingredients. Heat until warm.
-
Turn off the heat and add dry yeast without stirring. Allow it to sit for 5 minutes.
-
After 5 minutes, stir the mixture until well combined.
-
While waiting for the yeast mixture, mix all the dry ingredients together in a separate bowl.
-
Form a well in the middle of the dry ingredients. Gradually add and stir with a wooden spoon.
-
Keep an extra cup of warm water nearby. Add if needed to ensure the dough stays moist and sticky, not dry.
-
Pour the mixture onto a dry floured surface and knead for 5 minutes. Add flour as needed, but the dough should remain soft.
-
Form the dough into a large ball and divide it into two pieces.
-
Shape each piece into loaves and place them into regular-sized loaf pans.
-
Let the dough rise for 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
-
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
-
Bake the loaves for 45 minutes or until they begin to pull away from the sides of the pan.
-
Do not allow the dough to rise a second time. Also, do not preheat the oven before baking.
-
Once baked, allow the bread to cool slightly before slicing.
