MULTIGRAIN SUNFLOWER SOURDOUGH BREAD
Inspired by recipe #378013, which I really loved, but wanted to make as sourdough. I loved the result, so I'm posting it here hoping someone else loves it as much as me! I used 2 cups of 7 grain multigrain bread flour that I found at the St. Lawrence Market in Toronto, and 2 1/2 cups of Robin Hood Best for Bread Multigrain flour (which is really white, whole wheat, cracked wheat, and ground flax.) I used 1847 Oregon Trail Sourdough which I had just gotten two days prior, but any sourdough would do! The flour can be a combination of multigrain and whole wheat or white flour, to your taste preference. If you're so inspired, top this loaf with 7 grain cereal, oats, bran. Spray the loaf with Pam or water and then sprinkle with the topping before baking.

Steps:
- Starter: In large bowl, combine water, sugar, starter, flour, stirring until mixture is consistency of thick pancake batter, about 2 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap; let stand in warm place until bubbly and puffy, and yeasty/sour aroma develops, 8 to 12 hours.
- Stir in 4 cups of the flour, warm water, sunflower seeds, honey and salt, using a stand mixer or your hands, to make soft, somewhat sticky dough. Add the remaining 1/2 cup flour if the dough is too sticky.
- Turn out into oiled bowl; let rest for 30 minutes. Fold dough (like folding a letter), turn 90 degrees, fold again, repeat twice. Return to bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let rest 30 minutes more; repeat foldings. Form into loaf - round or loaf shaped, cover, and let rise in warm place until doubled in bulk, 2 to 2 1-1/2 hours. You can place it in a greased loaf pan or cookie sheet, in a brotform -- whatever. I highly recommend using a brotform and a baking stone, or a clay baker, but it works well with a simple loaf pan.
- Preheat oven to 375. If using a stone, place it in while preheating, for around 20 minutes. If using a clay baker, follow the usual process.
- If using topping, spray with Pam or water, and sprinkle it on top. Slash top. Bake in centre of 375°F (190°C) oven until instant-read thermometer registers 215°F (102°C) and/or loaf is golden and sounds hollow when tapped on bottom, 50 minutes. Transfer to rack; let cool.

Tips:
- Use a high-quality sunflower seed butter. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your bread.
- If you don't have sunflower seed butter, you can make your own by blending sunflower seeds in a food processor until smooth.
- Be sure to measure your ingredients accurately. This is especially important for the yeast, as too much or too little can affect the rise of your bread.
- If you're using active dry yeast, be sure to activate it in warm water before adding it to the dough.
- Knead the dough for at least 5 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic. This will help develop the gluten in the flour and make your bread chewy.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until it has doubled in size. This will allow the yeast to multiply and produce gas, which will cause the bread to rise.
- Bake the bread in a preheated oven for about 30 minutes, or until it is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help the bread retain its moisture and flavor.
Conclusion:
Sunflower bread is a delicious and nutritious bread that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
