Method
-
step 1
Mix the molasses with 700ml of warm water, the yeast and a little of the flour. Stand in a warm place until the mixture is frothy.
-
step 2
Mix the granary and white flour with the salt and stir in the nuts, seeds and oats.
-
step 3
Add 50ml olive oil to the molasses mixture and combine with flour mixture. It may need a little more water, oil or flour depending how dry your flour is – the dough should be soft, but not sticky. Knead for up to 10 minutes, then leave to rise in a warm place until doubled in size.
-
step 4
Beat back and form into 2 loaves. Put into two well-oiled 2lb loaf tins. Leave to double in size again and, when risen, glaze with beaten egg, and sprinkle seeds on top.
-
step 5
Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Bake for approx 40 mins until well risen, and golden. Turn out and check they are cooked by tapping on their bases – they should sound hollow.
