Description
If you are not happy about regular wheat flour when it comes to baking – try buckwheat! This Buckwheat Bread with Seeds is delicious and easy to bake.
Ingredients
For the chia pudding:
1.4 oz. (40g) chia seeds*
240ml water
For the bread:
7 oz. (200g) ground buckwheat*
3.5 oz. (100g) rolled oats*, ground
3 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
5 fl. oz. (150ml) water
2.4 fl. oz. (70ml) rapeseed oil*
3.5 oz. (100g) mixed seeds* (sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, sesame, etc.)
2 tbsp. rolled oats*
Instructions
1. First, make a chia pudding with the chia seeds and water. Simply soak the chia seeds in the water for about 20 minutes until a jelly-like mixture forms.
2. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease a small 20cm loaf pan* and line it with baking parchment. Set aside.
3. Mix the ground buckwheat and ground rolled oats with baking powder and salt in a bowl. Add the chia pudding, water, and rapeseed oil to the bowl and mix with a rubber spatula until well combined. Don’t overmix! Combine the mixed seeds and rolled oats, then add about 2/3 of the mixture to the batter and fold in.
4. Transfer the dough to the prepared pan and smooth out the top. Cut into the dough lengthwise down the middle with a wet knife, and sprinkle with the remaining seeds and oats. Bake the bread in the preheated oven for about 70-75 minutes – or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean. Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the baking pan for a while, then remove by lifting it out with the baking parchment. Let cool down completely on a wire rack.
Notes
The bread should keep for several days when well wrapped, but can also be frozen (in slices) without any problems.
