• TIPS: Once cooled, wrap in cling film, and freeze the loaves you do not require immediatly as home made yeast bread does not last long.
• Adjust time accordingly for smaller tins as they might require less than 1/2 the time.
• You can use a drop of choc brown colouring if you want really dark brown loaves.
• You could also sprinkle some wheat into the tins before putting the batter in.
• The seed mixture is 450ml of what you like.
• Add the seeds and amounts according to your tastes (maybe try raisins next time)- it's all up to you.
