You Will Need:
- 500g mixed grain bread flour
- 2 tbsp Bioglan Supergreens Powder
- 2 tbsp flax seeds
- 1 tbsp sunflower seeds
- 2 tbsp pumpkin seeds
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 1/4 cup raisins (optional)
- 2 tbsp chopped almonds (optional)
- 1 sachet fast-action yeast
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp honey
- 300 ml warm water
- pinch of salt
Method:
- Combine the flour, Supergreens Powder, seeds and yeast
- Separately, combine the oil, water and honey then add to the dry mix
- Stir together to make a soft dough (you may need more flour or water, depending on consistency), adding the raisins and almonds halfway through, if using
- Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 5 minutes or so, adding more flour if needed
- Add the dough to an oiled loaf tin, ensuring it is evenly spread
- Cover with a tea-towel and leave to rise for an hour (the mixture should spring back up when pressed with your finger)
- Brush with water and sprinkle with any leftover seeds
- Bake in a pre-heated oven at GM 6 / 200 C / 180 C (fan) for 35 mins (might need slightly more or less depending on your oven) until the loaf has risen and golden
- Once baked, leave to cool on a rack. Paired perfectly with nut butter!
