Organic Whole Grain Bread Blend is a delicious mix of organic seeds and grains that add flavor and texture to your favorite bread recipes.
How can I make one of my favorite bread recipes, Harvest Grains Bread, without the Whole Grain Bread Blend that is a major ingredient? You go to the store that has organic seeds and grains and make your own of course.
My daughter used to tease me about my buying brown sugar. For some reason, every time I went to the store I thought I was out so ended up with 3 or 4 more bags in my pantry. That isn’t the case with the mix that goes into my Harvest Grains Bread recipe. I have to order it on-line and just kept procrastinating.
I’ve been out of that mix for a while and every time I go to make bread I remind myself that I’ve got to place that order. That is until I decided to make my own.[Tweet “Organic Whole Grain Bread Blend #WholeGrain #Organic #recipe”]
There are a few grocery stores not far from where I live that have bins full of whole grains and seeds. So the last trip that I made I ended up buying several of them that I could combine myself.
Like so many recipes that you make yourself, this blend came out delicious. I was able to make twice as much at a fraction of the price even though I chose only organic ingredients.
Don’t have time to make it now? Pin it for later!

This is a fabulous mix Julie and canbe made into a good trail mix also with some dry berries and spices.
I love trail mix like that too Sonal! Makes snacking a little less guilty!
This looks sooo good! I wonder if it would be as good gluten free! I want it!
Thank you Michelle! I just love stuffing my bread full of extra things.
Wow! This gorgeous blend of grains must make an amazing loaf of bread! I’d love to try it in my bread machine… so healthy! What a great idea you had to make your own blend. I’ve had so many frustrating experiences with not finding a product I’ve been accustomed to using. That’s how I ended up making my own Roasted Mushroom Stock!
Thank you Tamara! Mushroom stock sounds amazing. I love mushroom everything. I can’t believe that I hadn’t done this earlier. Sometimes I just get an Ah ha moment. Wish that happened more often.
Good for you to make your own seed/grain blend for bread. It’s always better than having to buy it and cheaper too as long as you use it a lot and I am sure you do. I make a boule in an artisan pot and also one in my bread machine that are good but your mix has so many different ingredients. I must give it a try…
Thank you so much Judi! I just keep it in the freezer and take it out as I need it so none of it goes to waste. I bet that boule you make is just beautiful. What kind of artisan pot do you use?
It’s a 4.2 quart artisan crock I bought from KAF. See Sourdough Boule W/Oats, Sunflower & Flax Seeds and you can see the bread and the pot.
Thank you Judi!
Gorgeous! So much goodness!
Thank you Elaine! I love these goodies in my bread.
All those yummy grains would definitely add texture and wholesomeness to any bread recipe. Very well done. If you were closer Julie, I’d have you and a few friends over and have you demonstrate the art and skill of bread making. Mine are always a hit/miss outcome.
I DON’T know how I missed this Loretta! That would be so much fun getting together and baking some bread and then finishing it off with a bit of wine yes? I know I’m going to get to meet you some day my friend!
Count me in if wine is served during the lesson :). I wonder why you aren’t seeing my responses to your posts? I also sent a response to your honey wholegrain bread recipe, I see it on your post, but I don’t see a response. Are you not receiving notifications from me?
I don’t know what’s going on with my comments Loretta, they are all out of order and your comment got buried in some of the older comments. Don’t you just love technical stuff? It’s my nemesis! I would love to get together and still think it will happen!
I love to make my own spice blends and love the sound of your whole grain bread blend with all it’s textures and flavors! 🙂
Thank you Petra! I do too. I am always trying to up the nutritional benefits of what I cook in a delicious way and love this one.
I love this idea of blending up your own grains! This would make such an amazing loaf of bread.
Thank you Natalie! Happy New Year to you!
Just amazing, Julie!
Thank you so much, Linda! Hope you had a wonderful holiday!
I had a very nice holiday. Thank you, Julie!
I have a large canister with 2 packages of Harvest Grains in it.right now. I have never liked to run out and I don’t like to buy it online a lot because of the shipping. You have just saved me from overbuying and possibly letting it go stale. Thank you so for the recipe.
Thank you TerriSue! That means so much to me. Those seeds can go rancid so I hope you’re storing it in your freezer? A friend of mine suggested throwing some in my next batch of granola too.
