multigrain

Blended seed variety

Multigrain describes food, especially bread, made with more than one type of grain: multigrain bread, multigrain cereal.

The term implies variety and often suggests healthfulness, though multigrain products aren't necessarily whole grain—they may contain refined flours from multiple sources rather than nutritious whole grains.
