--------  ------------  --------------------------------
      1/2           cup  sugar
      1/2           cup  water -- warm
   4 1/2            tsp  Active Dry Yeast -- (two 1/4oz packets)

   1                tsp  salt
      1/4           cup  flax seeds

   2              large  eggs -- lightly beaten
   1                cup  whole wheat flour
   2               cups  bread flour
                         Topping
   1              large  egg -- lightly beaten
   3               TBSP  quick-cooking oats
   2               TBSP  flax seeds

This particular recipe yields such a light and airy loaf that I can 
see pairing it perfectly at any meal during the day. A toasted slice 
of multigrain oatmeal with a homemade jam or marmalade in the 
morning, or a freshly baked slice with a vibrant yolk fried egg for 
dinner at night, or paired with avocado and alfalfa sprouts or 
arugula on a picnic lunch.

In small bowl, dissolve 1 tsp sugar in warm water. Stir in Active Dry 
Yeast; let stand for 10 minutes, or until foamy.

In a mixer bowl, combine remaining sugar, boiling water, rolled oats, 
cracked wheat, oil and salt; let stand for 20 minutes. Stir in yeast 
mixture, flax seeds, sunflower seeds and whisk the eggs in with an egg beater.

With a rubber spatula, incorporate in the whole wheat flour and 2 
cups of bread flour. Attach the hook attachment of the mixer and 
knead on low setting  for 7 to 10 minutes or until smooth and 
elastic, adding more flour if necessary.

Lightly grease the mixer bowl, turning the dough to coat all over. 
Cover with plastic wrap; let rise in warm draft-free place for 1 hour.

Grease two 8 x 4" (1.5 L) loaf pans; set aside.

Punch down dough; turn out onto lightly floured surface. Divide dough 
in half; knead each portion into ball. Using rolling pin, gently roll 
each into rectangle the length of loaf pan. Roll up into cylinder; 
pinch along bottom to seal. Fold each end of loaf in and pinch to 
seal. Place into prepared pans. Cover and let rise in warm draft-free 
place for about 1 hour or until doubled in bulk.

Brush egg over loaves, sprinkle with topping of rolled oats and flax 
seeds. Bake in center of 375F (190C) oven for about 30 to 35 minutes 
or until loaves are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped on 
bottom. Remove from pans; let cool on racks.

Review: Gorgeous loaf, Shulie! Crumb looks really good. Love the flax 
seeds in there.

Review: Lovely loaf of bread & perfectly baked.
