Best bread I've made. Right density great for breakfast or as sandwich. Poppy seeds are not sold in my country (it's banned!) so I did away with it and added 1/3 cup of sunflower seeds. Turns out perfect. Thanks loafs!

Love this--thanks! It's a bit dry now, but since I didn't eat it as soon as I made it, I'm not surprised. Just had a sandwich with it and I love it. I subbed pine nuts for flax seed--didn't have any, and baked in oven for 30 min at 375. Came out golden brown.

My mom gave me her bread machine, and this was the first recipe I ever used in it. This was easy, used ingredients I already had on hand, and was delicious. I have made it a few times now, and use it for sandwiches. I will NOT buy bread from the store anymore, not with a great recipe in hand!

Made 2 loaves, 1 with roasted seeds, the other with raw seeds. I also increased the whole wheat flour to 1 cup, and decreased the bread flour to 1 cup. Very good breads! We prefer the nutty flavor of the one with the roasted seeds more! We will be making this again!

As plain untoasted bread, this was just okay. Toasted and turned into BLT's, this made an awesome sandwich! I think I'll only make this when we are planning on BLT's. For every-day, a simple wheat bread suits us better. Thanks for the recipe.

This is a really great loaf bread; perfect for sandwiches, heavenly as toast, great for grilled sandwiches, and just right when you simply want a fresh slice to hold some honey or butter. It doesn't need any changes - you can make it just as directed and it will come out perfectly every time. If you want a variation, however, it is perfectly amenable to tinkering. I frequently add oat bran, diastatic malt, and/or sunflower seeds. I often change the bread flour to a mix of plain and whole wheat flour (although when I do this, I add a tablespoon of wheat gluten to the mix, and increase the yeast quantity to 2 1/2 tsp.) For a sweeter version, I simply increase the honey and add a handful of currents. I bake almost all the breads my family eats; traditional, artisan, flat breads, rolls, braids, you name it. That being said, this is the best "everyday" loaf recipe I've come across, and I thank Donna Beth for sharing it.

this bread really rocks! i ate almost half a loaf when it came out of the oven. the only thing i added was some dough enhancer you can buy from www.kitchenresource.com it works like gluten, but preserves your homemade bread longer and really enhances it. the texture is better and doesn't crumble when you slice it. this batch i ran out of flax seed so i used flax seed meal so we'll see how it turns out. i like to add sunflower seeds too. this recipe is pretty versatile as far as seeds. i make in bread machine, starting with warm water, yeast and honey and let the yeast come to life b4 adding the flour.

I have made it 5 times now in two weeks. I can't keep it in the house. I love it. I don't think I will ever go back to reagular wheat bread.

Really really good. To be honest, when it was mixing I didn't think I would like it-thought it would be too crunchy/seedy and it smelled too strong-but it was absolutely delicious! I used sunflower, flax, & sesame seeds and used bread machine to mix, let rise in loaf pan and baked in my oven at 340 for 28 mins (my oven runs hot though). Perfect. Made the BEST toast the next morning too! Thanks-a new favorite!

This bread is sinful!!! I am new to baking bread - in both a machine and conventional. I changed a few things - added some wheatgerm - extra salt - extra yeast - abit more water. I also eyeballed the measuring of the honey and oil (used olive). Anyway, this bread recipe will be used at least 3 times a week - maybe 5!!!

Delicious. The crust came wonderfully crispy while the inside was soft and tender. I only had sesame seeds and poppy seeds on hand, which really gave the bread another level of flavor that wasn't overpowering but much more interesting than plain! Also, I had to sub light corn syrup for the honey, which seemed to work just fine.

This was really good, the taste was great, but I thought it was a little dry. My husband would give it 5 stars, though.

I'm giving this 5 stars because it was good and came out great even with adjustments. I didn't have any wheat flour so I used all purpose in place of it. My bread machine also doesn't have a setting for making a 1 lb loaf so I set it on the 1.5 lb and "light" settings and it came out perfect. I'm planning to make it with wheat flour this week!

Really nice bread, great for toasting too. I replaced half of the water with the soy milk for a little more flavour and protein.

This was really great bread, I am definately making this again. I ground the flax (linseeds)so they digested easily and provided the anitoxidants, and then toasted them with the rest of the seeds. The consistancy was very good, very impressed. Thanks for the recipe Donna

This is a wonderful recipe and it came out perfectly. I can't say enough good things about it! I put the bread machine on and then made the soup to go with it for dinner and my husband and I polished off more than half the loaf. I will make this again and again and will probably "fiddle" with the recipe a bit, more to see what happens than to improve it as it is already brilliant.

I like making bread the old fashioned way...by hand and bake it in my oven so that's what I did with this. It's pretty good tasting, however, it didn't rise very high.
