Multi Seeds Loaf

This bread contains 5 seeds and 2 grains.
Seeds... Pumpkin seeds, Sunflower seeds, Flax seeds, Sesame seeds, Poppy seeds.
Grains...Whole meal, Millet.
Make extra multi seeds mix, so you can use them next baking.

When I finish to bake it, I drop lots of decorated seeds on bread. I pick up and use them to sprinkle salad. Roasted seeds on salad!!

This bread is ideal for sandwich and meals. I like to put butter on it.
