Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Whole wheat flour
- 250 grams All-purpose flour
- 50 grams Rolled oats
- 50 grams Sunflower seeds
- 25 grams Flaxseeds
- 15 grams Chia seeds
- 25 grams Pumpkin seeds
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 500 milliliters Buttermilk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, rolled oats, sunflower seeds, flaxseeds, chia seeds, pumpkin seeds, salt, and baking soda. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and honey until the honey is dissolved.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the buttermilk mixture. Using a wooden spoon, stir until a rough dough forms. Avoid overmixing; the dough should be soft and slightly sticky.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently shape it into a round loaf. Do not knead the dough excessively.
Transfer the loaf to the prepared baking sheet. Using a sharp knife, score a deep cross into the top of the loaf (this helps the bread cook evenly).
Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Remove from the oven and let the bread cool on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm with butter, jam, or your favorite soup.
