1 cup boiling water

1/4 cup bulgur wheat

1/2 cup sunflower seeds

1/4 cup rolled oats

1 teaspoon salt

2 eggs

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

2 tablespoons honey

2 tablespoons brown sugar

2 teaspoons yeast

Let mixture soak and cool for about 15 minutes to soften bulgur.

Add remaining ingredients and combine to form dough.

Cover with greased plastic wrap and let rise again until 1" above rim of pan, about 45 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350*.

Bake bread for about 35 minutes, until lightly browned.

Turn out onto rack to cool completely before slicing.
