Lightly sweetened with honey, this round loaf is a great accompaniment to a steaming bowl of pumpkin soup or a spicy lamb stew. It's an easy recipe to work with and is easy to knead.

Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/4 cups warm water
1 (1/4-oz) pkg active dry yeast (2 1/3 tsp)
1 Tbsp honey
1/2 tsp salt
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
3 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

  • 1. Gently stir 1/2 cup of the warm water into the yeast, honey and salt. Cover and stand for 5 minutes or until bubbles appear on the surface.
  • 2. Sift both flours into a large bowl. Stir 1 Tbsp olive oil, remaining 3/4 cup warm water, and the yeast mixture into the flour, stirring until soft dough forms. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 10 minutes or until smooth.
  • 3. Grease 2 standard size baking trays (cookie sheets); set aside.
  • 4. Divide dough in half. Knead dough halves for 1 minute each. Shape each kneaded dough portion into a flat 8- to 9-inch round loaf. Place 1 on each prepared tray. Cover with plastic wrap and stand in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  • 5. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • 6. Brush loaves with remaining oil. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes or until golden and cooked through. Serve warm.

I'm not a huge fan of honey, but I really enjoyed this bread. The honey glaze is not too sweet, and it complements the bread perfectly.
