This bread has a fabulous taste from the addition of sesame oil. You can also add other seeds of your choice which I have listed as 'optional.' Cooking time includes cycle time in machine and second proofing. From '100 Bread Machine Recipes' by Vicki Smallwood.
Ingredients:
1 cup water, hot (90f-100f)
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
3 1/4 cups white bread flour
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 tablespoon sunflower seeds (optional)
1 tablespoon pumpkin seeds (optional)
1 1/2 teaspoons yeast
1 -2 tablespoon milk
1 -2 tablespoon sesame seeds
Directions:
1. Place the first four ingredients into your bread machine pan in the order they are listed above.
2. Mix the flour with the seeds and pour into the pan, followed by the yeast.
3. Set the programme to 'DOUGH'.
4. When the cycle has finished, (my machine takes 90 minutes) transfer the dough to a floured surface, knead about 5 times then shape as you like (round, oval, loaf, etc.) Place the dough on a lightly oiled baking sheet and cover it with a piece of oiled cling film/plastic wrap. Leave it to prove until it has almost doubled in size (about an hour).
5. Preheat the oven to 200C/400°F
6. Using the point of a sharp knife, cut 4-5 slashes in the loaf no more than 1/4 inch deep, making a simple design of your choice. (ex: / / / / or XXXX, etc.).
7. Brush the dough gently with the milk then sprinkle the sesame seeds over the top.
8. Bake for 25 minutes or until it has turned golden brown. Transfer the loaf to a wire rack and leave it to cool a little before slicing.
