I am relaunching one of my most popular and favourited recipes. The taste is the same but I have simplified the process to eliminate any machinery and give you more flexibility with ingredients. With this recipe, it’s never been easier to make bread. Most importantly, you won’t find a healthier alternative anywhere. Packed with healthy fats, whole grains, and protein this bread is satisfying, nutritious, and beyond delicious. If you haven’t tried this recipe, now is the time!
Ingredients:
• 2 cups nut flour (you can buy store bought, or make your own by pulsing nuts in food processor)
• 1 cup buckwheat or gluten free oat flour
• 1/2 cup hemp hearts
• 1/4 cup chia or flax seeds
• 1/4 cup sesame seeds
• 5 tbsp psyllium husk
• pinch of pink salt
• 1 tbsp honey or brown rice syrup
• 2 cups cold water
• Topping options: pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, everything bagel spice
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and grease with coconut or olive oil.
2. In a large bowl add nut flour, buckwheat flour, hemp hearts, chia seeds, sesame seeds, psyllium husk, salt and honey. Whisk until combined.
3. Add 2 cups of cold filtered water and mix until combined. Allow to sit for a few minutes until a firm dough forms.
4. Press mixture into loaf pan and sprinkle desired toppings. Press the toppings lightly into loaf so they don’t fall off.
5. Bake for 65-75 minutes or until the top is golden and crisp. Allow to cool completely before slicing.
6. Once cooled, slice at your desired thickness. The bread will keep fresh for a few days, but I like to freeze it right away. All you need to do is place a small piece of parchment between each piece (to avoid the pieces from sticking together) and store in a freezer bag. Alternatively, you could lay out each piece of bread on a cookie sheet and freeze. Once each piece is frozen, you could add them to a freezer safe container or bag. You’ll have bread for months (if it lasts that long).

How dry/crumbly should the dough be before pressing into the bread pan?
jen udashkin says
It should hold together like any dough. It shouldn’t be crumbly i’d say. If it is, add a small amount of water.

Could quinoa flour be used to replace the nut flour?
jen udashkin says
I’ve never tried!
Jiali says
Hi!
Is it possible to sub psyllium husk and can you use almond meal in this recipe?
jen udashkin says
unfortunately no! It holds the bread together.
Jiali says
So it’s really not possible to sub psylium husk for flax seeds meal and almond flour for almond meal?
Margaret says
I love the bread super yummy! Thank you for sharing! I was wondering if there’s a way to make it less dense and closer to normal bread texture?
jen udashkin says
Unfortunately no- There is no yeast in this bread.
jen udashkin says
No. Without yeast this is the texture!
Gabrielle says
Hi,
The bread is amazing! Thank you so much for the recipe:)
However, it didn’t cook in the middle and I left it in the oven for 1,5 hours. Is it normal? What can I do?
Glenda says

jen udashkin says
