Some Darn Good Bread

I recently made some darn good break (actually amazing bread).  The recipe is completely stolen from here http://www.mynewroots.org/site/2013/02/the-life-changing-loaf-of-bread/ with a few changes.  It is really good!

Makes 1 loaf

Ingredients:

1 cup / 135g sunflower seeds (or half sunflower half pumpkin)
½ cup / 90g flax seeds
½ cup / 65g hazelnuts or almonds (used almonds)
1 ½ cups / 145g rolled oats
2 Tbsp. chia seeds (I omitted b/c chia bothers my tummy)
4 Tbsp. psyllium seed husks (3 Tbsp. if using psyllium husk powder)
1 tsp. fine grain sea salt (add ½ tsp. if using coarse salt)
1 Tbsp. maple syrup (for sugar-free diets, use a pinch of stevia)
3 Tbsp. melted coconut oil or ghee
1 ½ cups / 350ml water

In addition to the above I also added a ton of cinnamon.  I think raisins would be yummy to add as well.

Directions:

1. Mix dry ingredients (optional, mix in a food processor and this will produce a bread that is more bread-like and less granola like--if you mix in a food processor you can mix everything together at once and skip the rest of this step). Whisk maple syrup, oil and water together in a measuring cup. Add this to the dry ingredients and mix very well until everything is completely soaked and dough becomes very thick (if the dough is too thick to stir, add one or two teaspoons of water until the dough is manageable). 

2. Spoon into a bread baking dish. Let sit out on the counter for at least 2 hours, or all day or overnight. 

3. Preheat oven to 350°F / 175°C.

4. Place loaf pan in the oven on the middle rack, and bake for 50 minutes. Bread is done when it sounds hollow when tapped. Let cool completely before slicing (difficult, but important--otherwise it will fall apart on you).
