Seeds are a tasty and healthy addition to homemade breads.

According
to Dr. Andrew Weil, M.D., creator of the Anti-Inflammatory Food Pyramid,
seeds are an excellent source of healthy fats like monounsaturated fats
and omega-3 fatty acids. Adding seeds to breads will give extra flavor and
texture.
Seed bread recipes can focus on just one type of seed, or you can mix
different seeds in the same dough. You can experiment with grinding a
variety of seeds together to get a range of flavors, or roll your dough in
whole seeds before baking to add visual interest to your loaf.

Flax Seeds
According to Jack Carter of North Dakota State University, grinding flax
seeds will give you the best health benefits as this will release the healthy
oils and fiber. Try replacing ½ cup of the flour in a bread recipe with ½
cup with ground flax seeds.

Sunflower Seeds
Like with flax seeds, you can grind up sunflower seeds and put them in
your bread, replacing part of the flour with and equal amount of ground
seeds.

Poppy Seeds
You can make many cake-like breads with poppy seeds, usually
accompanied by a citrus flavor like lemon or orange. You also can
sprinkle poppy seeds on the outside of bread for an added crunch, as you
find in poppy seed breadsticks.

Sesame Seeds
Sesame seeds have a distinctive nutty flavor; usually sprinkle them on the
crust of breads and rolls. Many Italian breads contain sesame seeds, and
they are a popular addition to hamburger buns. You also can eat seeds in
breads raw or you can toast them to give a depth of flavor.

Hemp Seeds
Toast hemp seeds in a skillet and add them to your favorite bread recipe
for a crunchy addition.
Pumpkin Seeds
Like with hemp seeds, you can toast pumpkin seeds before adding them
into the bread dough. You don't have to change the recipe, just add them
in in any amount you wish for some extra crunch and flavor.
