Ingredients

  • 2 cups wheat flour
  • ½ cup ragi flour
  • ¾ cup maida
  • ¼ cup broken corn
  • ½ cup instant oats
  • 2 tablespoon oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • water as needed
  • 1 no egg just to brush the top - you can replace egg with milk too

For the yeast mixture

  • 1 tablespoon yeast
  • 2 tablespoon sugar
  • ½ cup warm water

Instructions

  • To a mixer jar add oats and broken corn.
  • Grind to a smooth powder. Transfer to a mixing bowl, add maida.
  • Add ragi flour and wheat flour. Mix well and set aside.
  • Add warm water to another mixing bowl. Add sugar and yeast. Mix it and set aside undisturbed for 10 minutes.
  • It will be frothy in few mins it shows that the yeast is active. Add the yeast mixture and oil.
  • Add salt. Mix well. Add more water and knead well to a smooth dough.
  • Transfer to working surface and start kneading. Fold and knead as shown in the steps, knead at least for 5-7 minutes.
  • Brush it with oil and keep it inside the mixing bowl, keep covered and set aside to rise for 1 hour. Keep in a warm place.
  • See it has almost doubled punch down to knock out the air.
  • Brush with oil, dust with flour and keep the bread pan ready. Shape the dough in the form of a log as shown below. Seal the edges and fold inwards.
  • Transfer to the bread loaf tin and let it rise for 30-45 minutes. Brush it with an egg.
  • Sprinkle oats. Bake in preheated oven at 200 deg C for 45 minutes or until the top turns golden..
  • Cool down for 15mins then invert and remove the bread loaf.
  • Cool down Multigrain Bread completely, slice and serve.

Notes

  • Yeast – I check whether the yeast is active before mixing with flour. This helps the bread rise well and gives better texture.
  • Kneading – I knead using palms for few minutes and it helps to get smooth dough. It improve texture.
  • Rising – Keep the dough in warm place for better rising, the dough should almost double in size before shaping.
  • Cooling – I cool down the bread before slicing it. This gives neat slices and prevents the bread from breaking.
  • Slicing – I use serrated knife for cutting the bread loaf. It helps avoid breaking the loaf and gives clean slices.
