Thank you so much for this video. I love the bread so much. I got tired of measuring out the seeds and figured out how heavy they were and created a massive jar of the seed mix measuring with a food scale. I’m going to drop the measurements below for anyone else that wants to do this. Thanks so much for this video. My wallet is happy as am I! 30 g sunflower seed 25 g amaranth 20 g chia seeds 15 g raw pumpkin seeds 20 g whole flax seeds 10 g sesame seeds 15 g poppy seeds 135 g of this “seed mix” is needed for each loaf. I find only 1/4 cup needed on a plate for coating.
It is a great expense if you don’t have the ingredients for sure. If you don’t plan on baking breads and such often and don’t mind some of the not so great preservatives, buying ready made is A OK
@@Jill4Today I found some "day old" bread on the rack at the local Kroegers that was half round loaf - if we ran the bakery style - it was like diluting Dave's Killer by half with a slightly over-yeasted and over-baked typical artisan sourdough so that it was chewey, and holds the olive oil well. I mean that was ideal. Unfortunately it was ghosted - came from somewhere maybe as a trial and I didn't keep a label.
That looks absolutely delicious! Admittedly, the cost of Dave's prevented me from ever purchasing. Thank you for yet another "must try" recipe. Be well and Be safe!
Nice recipe. I made this recipe twice and the second time I made it I reduced the honey to 1 Tbls. And added 1 Tbls. of molasses. It gave it even another dimension of flavor.
Made two loaves today - Sunday. They look beautiful. Haven’t sliced it yet; still cooling . I was missing a bunch of the suggested ingredients so I just winged it and made my own. Thanks for all your suggestions.
I can't wait to try this. I love your video. You are so easy to listen to and follow. I've subscribed and am looking forward to hearing more of your recipes!
I've baked this twice, and it's my favorite bread. It reminds me of the artisan bread I used to buy when I lived in San Francisco. Way better than Dave's.
I made this bread today following your turtorial and instructions but not to a T. I had to switch up some of the ingredients because I didn't have them just some of the seeds. I didn't have chai, poppy or amaranth (don't even know what that is lol) so I just added extra of the other seeds to compensate and let me tell you the bread turned out MAGNIFICENT!! Absolutely delicious. First time using my Sunbeam stand mixer and worked alright just didn't work as well as yours! LOL Also I did not pat it down flat after it rose all I did was slam the bowl on the counter and it deflated the dough perfectly. I just took the dough out and put it in the bread pan and added seeds to the top. Putting the dough in the bread pan worked perfect because as it rose it took the shape of the bread pan so there was no need to roll the dough into a loaf shape. Just made it a tiny bit easier and quicker. Either way this bread is DELICIOUS and I will be making it many times over. Thank you so much for the turtorial, recipe and instruction so very much appreciated.
Hey Dreamdesign! Thanks so much for letting me know how well your 🍞 turned out. I'm glad you felt like doing your own thing with seeds, banging the dough around, etc. You are a baker now. Go forth and create!
I haven't purchased Dave's bread since finding this recipe. Only change I made I used Yudane in the recipe. Made it first time as written was delicious then when I used the Yudane it was even softer and lasted alot longer. Thank you for all your effort on our behalf!!
Lovely bread! I make something similar - it all started with “your” Dave’s bread, but I’ve substantially tweaked it. First I mill a mix of organic WWheat berries into flour, then mix this fresh flour, water and SourDough Starter (leavening) together. Ferment overnight in refrigerator, then proceed to knead in EVOO, seeds, etc. It rises quite well w/o lecithin or added gluten, but sometimes we give it a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Awesome. Thank you for the initial recipe - we’ve now made it our own. Isn’t the art of baking wonderful?!
Dave's bread is real good. But yours is the best bread that I have ever tasted . The texture was so perfect. I followed the recipe to the tee. Yum, Yum, Yum. Dont even need butter.
Ymmm....I can only imagine the beautiful, fragrant aroma of this Multi-Seed Whole Wheat Bread that your hubby needn't no cajoling to get on cam and do a taste test!😂Yes, I've seen Dave's at Costco and it is so expensive, but following your example and thanking you for sharing the recipe making this bread here.Currently we're buying an 8 grain Sunflower, sesame and linseed bread made by Canadian Bagel but that bread's beginning to raise in price, still cheaper than Dave's but better to make our bread at home like you Miss Jill.😋👍
My parents don’t feel like spending $7 on Dad’s favorite loaf of bread so I was looking for a recipe to see if that would save much money to make it for him. I have everything but the amaranth & pumpkin seeds (which I usually have). 🤔 I’d really like to try it once, and as I suspected the seeds must be nearly worth the price of the bread 😆 Thank you for making and sharing this recipe!
Thanks for writing. I know it's quite a mix of seeds. You don't need to use them all. Also, if you can fine the seeds, etc, in bulk that will really bring the price down
that looks so dang easy! And the crumb looked perfect. I'm going to have to try that. I've made whole wheat breat where the instructions are to knead by hand but why not just use your stand mixer?! Your method and recipe looks like a winner.
hi there Jill fantastic bread I tried it and the first time it came out FANTASTIC I have it sliced and frozen 😀 now I tried it yesterday and it didn't rise in the loaf pan 😅 and again today It didn't rise in the loaf pan and was extremely sticky I the mixer what am I doing wrong ....help!
I'm not sure what the problem may be, especially since you were successful with the first loaf. If the dough is a lot more sticky than the other successful loaf, I'd add a bit more flour. I hope that helps
Hi Jill, I am a 68 year old retired 42 year career machinist. I love to cook. Actually I do all the cooking. My wife is a retired 42 year ER nurse. She is now disabled from giving her life to others. Anyway, I love baking. Have been baking for a year, fledgling baker. All I wanted was a good healthy whole grain seeded bread. I cannot tell you how many I have tried. You have changed my life. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I am so appreciative for your efforts. I made this loaf today, actually I made two. One exactly like you explained and one the same but with a cup of chopped cranberries it just came out of the oven. But the first one is amazing… my new go to staple bread. This is better than Dave’s because it’s fresh. And so so good. Hugs and appreciation to you sweetheart. You are an angel. Bless you.
Thank you so very much for writing. Both myself and my husband so appreciated your comments and sharing some of your life with us. Your wife is a very lucky lady to have such a talented chef in the house. And. What a gift she has in you for having you to give her some extra care. I do hope you'll continue to bake bread. It's very therapeutic. I've got a number of bread recipes that keep you interested in trying different loaves. Again, thank you so very much for writing
I just have to write and tell you,this is the best bread ever I make two every week one for my sister and one for my husband and myself. Ppl have even ask me to make them and sell them to them but I just direct them to your channel.Its easy and simple but delicious.Thank you again and I’ve made at least two of you other recipes..the best. Be well and blessed.
I did it! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. I had lots of seeds fall off too so I think I'll just not put any seeds on top because the inside looked great with the amount mixed in. This is my go to bread recipe from now on...thank you again!
I'm not sure if there's really a substitute for amaranth. You could substitute millet. You can certainly leave it out without much of a change to the recipe.
OMG Jill-I am ordering all the seeds, etc from the site you recommended! Only question, they have vital wheat gluten as a flour-I want to make sure I am ordering the right thing. My family can’t get enough of your beer bread-I know they will flip over this! It’s so good to see you in the kitchen and looking so beautiful. I continue prayers for you every day!❤️🙏🏻
Yes, you can buy vital wheat gluten flour. Azure is an amazing shopping experience. Check to see if they have a drop-off point in your area. You can buy on line but if possible the drop off is the way to go. Thanks for using the link I provide. I do get a little bonus. Let me know how you do with Azure.
Looks like excellent recipe just what I was looking for. The problem is I don’t have the mixer Would it be possible to get the same beautiful loaf doing it manually kneading the dough Thanks for sharing the recipe 🌹❤️🌹
Just made this ,it came out so good,I added a few raisins because my husband just loves them and I just put the seeds on the top Thank you so much for this recipe.Can you add the vital wheat gluten or amaranth to any bread you’re making or just those that require it?
@Jill 4 Today. How do you spell 'Yummy" ? Dave's Bread. I love his bread. His backstory is inspirational, too. If I buy wholewheat bread... it's ONLY Dave's Bread, the more seeds the merrier. I will definitely save your recipe. Can't wait for some warm bread, fresh from the oven with real butter. It always makes the best toast, too ! Thank you Jill ➡🌟🌟🌟
Hey Jill. Awesome recipe!!! Question: Want to make 2/3 whole wheat 1/3 white. Would you add another tablespoon or two of wheat gluten to fluff it up? 🤔🙏🙏
Thank you. Looks great. Gonna' try your recipe out. I have all the ingredients and then some. I use Vitacost. Bob's Red Mill has all the flours, grains, seeds and nuts imaginable. Not familiar with Azure. I thank you again. Blessings.
Great recipe! Made my first loaf today and it won’t be my last. Easy, flexible and delicious. My only question is was the ingredients❤ listing of flax seed twice an error? Thanks Jill!
My Tracy, Welcome! I hope you enjoy my videos. If you're new to bread making, I have a really easy no knead bread recipe so you might check that one out. Regarding putting the copycat recipe in a bread maker, I've not used a bread machine so I don't know if you can put seeds in a machine. Is it possible the seeds might jam it up? I hope that helps.
This looks so good and I am going to make a small loaf for me. Maybe I can cut the recipe in half. Hubby wants whole wheat. I made rye and he wants whole wheat. I will make a small loaf of yours for me and make him whole wheat.
Dear Jill and husband, I am 69 years old and have watched hundreds if not thousands of all kinds of videos on RU-vid including not only cooking videos. This is the best video honestly that I have watched because you were amazing for your age and I cannot wait to make this bread. I am a plumber of 51 years originally born in what is now Silicon Valley but have been in Hilo Hawaii for 33 years. I do plumbing for our health food store here called Island Naturals and we are all friends. They bake beautiful bread but I am going to tell the owner Russell about this and see if they will be willing to try it. Thank you you two dolls. I love you! Aloha, Paul da Plumma Mauna Kea Plumbing Co.
You are so kind to give such compliments. It means a lot when someone watches my videos and appreciates the content. That's a very old video, and it was pretty rough. Turns out it's one of my most watched. Thanjs for sharing a bit about yourself. We like to know who's watching my videos. Thanks again for watching. Jill
I use this recipe all the time since I found it 4 months ago. I have a question, I ran out of whole wheat flour can I use all purpose flour will it work?? Thank you for any help it is greatly appreciated!! This is the best bread i've ever baked and i'm in the mood for baking bread but need to use up my all purpose flour as I'm out of whole wheat. Thank you.
Hi! If it was me, and I had run out of WW flour, I absolutely would use all-purpose flour. It should be really good. I'm glad you've been enjoying the recipe
Please look down below the video to the information box. there's the word "More"....click on that and a box will drop down with the recipe. Hope that helps
I know it's terrible! If you look right below the video to where you see the description of the video, you'll see "more". Hit that and the recipe should pop down
I've just made this bread! Thank you for the recipe! I've been baking for a long time now but I never end up with a beautiful loaf like yours. After the 2nd rise, my loaf had a perfect "dome" shape but as soon as I put it in the oven, the top flattens. What am I doing wrong?
I'm glad the bread was a success as far as flavor, etc goes. I'm sorry to hear the dome on top collapsed. Sometimes, if you over proof, the yeast gasses can't hold the top of the bread. So could very well be what's wrong. Or you may have hit it a little hard with the yeast? I'm hoping you'll give the bread another try. 🍞
It's a flour that is totally gluten and very high in protein, which gives you a lighter loaf of bread. You can usually find it in super markets -- Bob's Red Mill does have it in their line of food.
Your bread looks delicious! Dave’s is very expensive. Was buying all the ingredients was less costly? Do you have any idea if the cost breakdown for your homemade? I’m sure it tastes much better than store bought.
@@Jill4Today you’re a great bread maker and it’s obvious you love to bake. I’m not very good at baking so I don’t enjoy it very much. I guess that’s why my thoughts turned toward buying vs trying to make it myself. Ha! I guess my best bet is to continue to bake vicariously through you instead! Thanks for sharing your bread with us. I’m always so impressed that you are able to create so many wonderful things in your kitchen.
It would greatly help if you would at least give the flour weights, flour by volume isn't very accurate. I'm sure that you as an experienced baked can gage everything by feel or visually, not so much the case for others. But the bread looks great.
Hi. I appreciate your comments. You're right about measurement in weight. Much more accurate. Probably 95% of my viewers don't have scales and rely on cup measurements. I will try to include weight calculations in the future. You certainly can understand the time involved in weighing out everything that goes into some bread recipes, particularly this one. Thanks again
If it would help any, just add the amounts as stated, and if it’s not coming clean off the bowl as it kneads for the first 3 minutes, like in the video, just add flour in small increments until it does. I usually sprinkle in a couple tablespoons at a time. And if too dry, add water a little at a time. This recipe seems to be very forgiving ❤
I've never made bread in a machine so I'm not sure. My understanding is you basically put everything in the machine and let it do the work. I'm not sure how bread machines would accept all those seeds. Do you think it could clog up the works? That would ba a concern to me
