What things can I add to my wheat bread without otherwise altering the recipe?

I have a regular wheat bread recipe that I like. I'm not a skilled baker, but this works well for me.


Last week I bought a fabulous nutty/seedy bakery loaf that has a plethora of yummy stuff. So I kept the sticker that lists those things, with the idea that I'd alter my own wheat bread recipe by adding them, thereby semi-recreating the yummy bakery loaf.


Will it work? For a 3-loaf recipe, how much of each can I use? Do I need to adjust the standard recipe to accomodate the additions? Sure seems like I'd have to add more fat or liquid.


Here is what I have:



  • cracked wheat

  • bulgur

  • millet

  • pumpkin seeds

  • flax seeds

  • sunflower seeds


Would appreciate your thoughts!
