Homemade Whole Wheat Bread Recipe for Sandwiches
Description
The bread dough combines whole wheat and all-purpose flours with rolled oats, flaxseed, pumpkin, sunflower, sesame, and poppy seeds, which contribute both moisture retention and a complex flavor. The use of milk, honey, and butter enriches the dough, lending softness and a tender crumb. After mixing and a long rise, the dough is shaped into a loaf, brushed with an egg wash, and garnished with additional oats and seeds for a rustic look and added texture.
Baked at 400°F (200°C) for 35 to 40 minutes, the bread develops a golden crust and a light structure that rings hollow when tapped, signaling doneness. Cooling fully before slicing helps maintain the crumb’s integrity. This bread works well for sandwiches thanks to its firm yet tender texture and balanced flavor from the seeds and whole wheat.
