Everything Bread is yeast bread with everything bagel seasoning inside AND on top! The most delicious bread for toast!

I have the hardest time getting back into a posting schedule after taking a blog vacation. My mom was here visiting last week and I had intended on getting a few posts up but yeah… didn’t happen.

I did manage to make this Everything Bread and it was complete torture. I can’t wait until Wednesday when I can finally have a slice! I’ve made this recipe in the past though so I can safely say that it is absolutely amazing and it’s perfect for those of us that love the “everything” flavor but aren’t huge bagel fans.

My favorite thing about this bread and what sets it apart from other “everything” recipes I’ve come across is that the seeds and dried onion and all that goodness are inside that bread too! So it’s double the flavor!

You have to make avocado toast with this bread!

Ingredients

Vegetable oil
Salt – this is going in the everything seasoning that is going inside the bread itself and on top of the bread.
Black pepper – also part of the everything seasoning.
Dried minced garlic – make sure it is the minced garlic and not granulated garlic. You want pieces of garlic not pulverized garlic. It’s going in the bread and on top.
Dried minced onion – make sure it’s dried minced onion and not onion powder. It it doing in the bread and in the topping.
Poppy seeds – these are going in bread dough and on top of the bread.
Sesame seeds – I think white sesame seeds look best in the everything mixture but you can use black if that’s what you have.
Caraway seeds – these give the mixture the distinctive everything flavor. They are going in the bread dough and on top of the bread.
Oatmeal – adding oatmeal to bread gives it such a nice texture.
Bread flour
Active dry yeast
Cornstarch – this is getting mixed into water and brushed on top of the bread. It creates a shiny top.

How To Make Everything Bread

Dry ingredients. Whisk together yeast, 1 cup flour, and other dry ingredients.
Wet ingredients. Stir together liquids and heat to 120-130F.
Combine. Combine dry mixture and liquid ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer with paddle or beaters for 4 minutes on medium speed.
Knead. Gradually add remaining flour and knead with dough hook 5 to 7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place dough in lightly oiled bowl and turn to grease top. Cover.
Rise. Let rise until dough tests ripe, about an hour.
Shape. Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; punch down to remove air bubbles. Shape dough into a round loaf. Place on a parchment covered baking sheet.
Rise again. Cover; let rise until indentation remains after touching, another hour or so.
Brush. Combine 1+½ teaspoons water and cornstarch; brush on top of bread.
Top. Sprinkle with topping.
Bake. Bake in preheated 375F oven 30 to 40 minutes.

How Long Is It Good For?

Everything bread will be good for 3 – 4 days. Store it at room temperature in an airtight container.

Can You Freeze It?

You can freeze homemade bread for up to 3 months. I recommend slicing the cooled bread, wrapping it in plastic wrap, and place it in a freezer ziploc bag.

You can pull out individual slices or the entire loaf and let it defrost at room temperature until it’s defrosted enough to toast.
