--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1                cup  quinoa -- uncooked
   2               cups  water -- for cooking quinoa
      1/4           cup  oatmeal
      1/4           cup  water -- for cooking oatmeal
      1/4           cup  milk
      3/4           cup  water -- warm
   2          teaspoons  yeast
      1/3           cup  honey
      1/4           cup  vegetable oil
   3        tablespoons  powdered milk
   2        tablespoons  sourdough starter -- optional
   2 1/2           cups  bread flour -- to 3 cups
   1                cup  whole wheat flour
   2        tablespoons  quinoa -- to sprinkle on top of loaf

Cook the quinoa in 2 cups of water for 10 to 15 minutes, until the 
water is absorbed. Cool to room temperature.

Cook the oatmeal in 1/4 cup water and 1/4 cup milk until the liquid 
is absorbed. Cool to room temperature.

Place 3/4 cup warm water in a large bowl or bowl of a stand mixer and 
sprinkle the yeast over the water. Let the yeast rest for 5 minutes.

Stir the honey, vegetable oil, powdered milk and sourdough starter 
(if using) into the yeast mixture with a wooden spoon or with a dough 
hook on low speed.

Add 1 cup of the bread flour and the salt and stir well. Add the 
cooked quinoa and oatmeal and stir. Add the whole wheat flour and one 
cup more of the bread flour and stir.

When the dough starts to get stiff, turn it out onto a floured 
surface and begin to knead. If you are using a stand mixer, continue 
to knead with the dough hook.

Keep adding flour and kneading until the dough is smooth and elastic, 
about 5 minutes with a mixer or 10 to 15 minutes by hand. The dough 
should feel slightly sticky but should not be wet and slack. You 
should be able to form it into a ball that holds its shape.

Lightly oil a large bowl with a vegetable oil and place the dough 
into the bowl, turning to coat it lightly with the oil. Cover loosely 
with plastic wrap.

Let the dough rise in a warm spot until it doubles in size, about 2 hours.

Oil a large loaf pan, 11 x 16 inches.

Punch down the dough and shape it into a ball. Pat and flatten into 
an oval shape about the length of the bread pan. Fold the long sides 
in and tuck them underneath as you place the bread into the pan, so 
the top surface of the bread is smooth and without seams.

Brush the top of the loaf very lightly with water and sprinkle with 
quinoa seeds. Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has almost 
doubled in size.

Preheat the oven to 400F. When the oven is hot, place the bread in 
the center of the oven. Throw a handful of ice cubes into the bottom 
of the oven to create steam.

Bake for 30 minutes. Cover the bread loosely with foil if the top is 
getting too brown and bake for 15 minutes more. Bread should sound 
hollow when tapped.

Cool the bread in the pan for 15 minutes, then remove and allow to 
cool completely.
