Instructions
Preheat oven 400 degrees.
Oil 3 tin loaf pans or 2 loaf pans and one small cake pan (we just use olive oil with a paper towel). You make the dough into loaf sizes or round to fix into a loaf pan. Set aside.
Mix all dry ingredients together: whole wheat flour, all purpose flour, mixed seeds, quick oats, baking soda, salt, and flaked Dulse. Set aside.
Using a stand mixer, in a large mixing bowl, beat the brown sugar, molasses, buttermilk, milk, egg, and oil.
Slowly add in the dry ingredients into the wet, and mix. (Make sure you are using your dough beater). The dough will be sticky, so you can butter, oil, or spray your hands. Divide the dough into the 3 pans.
Bake for 40-45 minutes.
Remove from the oven, and allow to sit for 5 minutes. Remove the bread loaves from the pans.
