Method

  • step 1

    Make the dough with the flour, yeast, salt and water as stated in the 'Goes well with' recipe (see right), adding most of the seeds and all the walnuts as you knead the dough. Leave to rise in a clean bowl as stated, then knock back and shape into a large round. Roll the round in the remaining seeds, then lift the bread onto a tray to prove for about 30 mins until doubled in size.

  • step 2

    Heat oven to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7. Bake the bread for 15 mins, then reduce the heat to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5 and continue to bake for 30 mins until the loaf sounds hollow when tapped on the base. Leave the bread on a cooling rack to cool completely. The loaf will stay fresh in an airtight container for 3 days or can be frozen for 1 month.

question

Can you replace the wholemeal flour with white bread flour? I'm trying to make healthier loaves but my wholemeal bread is brick-like so I've given up trying that.

Also does soaking seeds and nuts help like many say? Thanks!

question

How much water is needed? The recipe says "up to warm water"

Hi, thanks for your question. It should say 'up to 300ml warm water'. We're going to update the recipe shortly. Thanks for spotting it. Best wishes, BBC Good Food Team.

Oops think you got this one wrong. Malt house loaf in the glutenfree section, I don,t think so. Disappointing as I thought I had found a great loaf to bake, so difficult to find a good gluten free recipe for bread!

Oops! I think you might be referring to the wrong recipe. There is a very similar gluten free one by Sarah Cook with almost the same photo and title (Malted Walnut Seed BREAD). V confusing.

Soaking the seeds overnight stops you from breaking your teeth on them (especially hard hemp seeds, if using).

question

When I've baked a loaf with walnuts in it before the ones near the top burn easily. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Hi there, thanks for your question, when you shape the dough try and make sure the walnuts are all inside the bread, thanks.
