For an even richer flavor, try browning the butter before adding it to the wet ingredients. If you don't have white whole wheat flour, you can use regular whole wheat flour, but the texture might be slightly denser. Feel free to substitute other dried fruits or nuts for the raisins and pumpkin seeds. This bread freezes well! Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and then in foil for longer storage.
