I recently had a wonderful sandwich while I was out and was truly the bread that made it. Sweet with molasses and loaded with seeds, I knew I’d have to try and make it at home, and that is just what I did.

This is a HEAVY loaf, so if you wish to lighten it a bit, replace some of the whole wheat flour with AP or bread flour. The bread also has the distinct taste of molasses, if you don’t care for the strong taste, replace the molasses with honey or maple syrup; it will still be delicious.
