Sunflower Seed Sandwich Loaf
I have always done a lot of baking but never with a sourdough starter. On Jan 1st. I decided it was time to learn. I made a starter from the KA recipe and with the help of all the advice from here and the trials and tribulations of getting one started I finally had a active bubbly sweet smelling starter. I quickly started my first artisan loaf and.....we don't talk about it, it tasted good but looked nothing like the products pictured here. I figured it was just too young and went on to make waffles and sandwich buns that both came out looking and tasting excellent. Today I made my first product that I am proud to present, a loaf of Sunflower Seed Sandwich Bread. It is a 50% blend of whole wheat and bread flour , and two cups of 100% starter with a little salt, honey, butter and sunflower seeds. It took three and hours to rise, the crust is crunchy with a nice lite crumb. Now that I think my starter is mature enough I will try a beginners artisan loaf. I'll present it no matter how it comes out for comments and advice.
sandwiches of all kinds. Congrats on the first SD bread coming out of your kitchen.
Happy baking
Hey FloridaShark, I'm a newbie at baking, however, that bread looks delish. Would you mind sharing your recipe?

It calls for using a bread machine to mix the dough. I used my Kitchen Aid mixer with a dough hook and simulated the machine cycles letting the dough rest a few times during the mixing process. Good Luck
You are so kind to share. Hope mine turn out as well as yours. Thanks sooooo much and have a great day:).
Looks delicious, soft and wholesome. I think your starter is performing very well.
Enjoy!
...and I look forward to more.
It looks amazing , thanks for sharing .
