Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 1/4 cup flaxseeds
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup warm water
  • 1 tablespoon honey


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the bread.
  2. Soak Oats: In a mixing bowl, combine the 2 cups of rolled oats with 1 cup of warm water. Allow the mixture to sit for 10 minutes so the oats soften and absorb the water.
  3. Add Seeds and Seasoning: To the soaked oats, add 1/2 cup sunflower seeds, 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds, 1/4 cup flaxseeds, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 tablespoon baking powder. These ingredients add flavor, texture, and help the bread rise.
  4. Mix Ingredients: Stir the mixture thoroughly until all components are well combined and the batter has an even consistency.
  5. Prepare Loaf Pan: Grease a loaf pan lightly to prevent sticking, then transfer the oat and seed mixture into the pan. Spread it evenly.
  6. Bake Bread: Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool and Serve: Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool completely before slicing to ensure the texture sets perfectly.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, consider adding a teaspoon of cinnamon or nutmeg to the mixture.
  • Ensure the seeds are fresh and unsalted to keep the flavor balanced.
  • You can substitute honey with maple syrup for a vegan option.
  • Store leftover bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
  • This bread pairs wonderfully with nut butter or avocado for a satisfying snack.
