Ingredients

Scale

Nuts and Seeds

  • 1 cup mixed nuts (almonds, walnuts, hazelnuts), finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons ground flaxseeds

Binding Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons natural gelling agent
  • 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (natural)
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Nuts and Seeds: Start by finely chopping your mixed nuts to create varied sizes for texture, while keeping the pumpkin, sunflower, and chia seeds whole to add inviting crunch.
  2. Mix the Binding Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the ground flaxseeds, natural gelling agent, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), apple cider vinegar (natural), water, and sea salt. Stir well until a thick, cohesive binding mixture forms.
  3. Combine and Rest: Gently fold the chopped nuts and whole seeds into the binding mixture until thoroughly combined. Let the mixture rest for 10 minutes to activate the natural gelling agent, allowing the mixture to hold together.
  4. Shape and Bake: Press the dough into a lined loaf pan or shape it freeform on a baking tray. Bake at 160°C (320°F) for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the bread has firms up and develops a deep golden crust.
  5. Cool and Slice: Once baked, allow the bread to cool completely to ensure clean slicing and to lock in the flavors and textures.

Notes

  • Lightly toast your nuts and seeds beforehand to enhance flavor and deepen crunch.
  • Use fresh seeds for optimal taste and nutrition without bitterness.
  • Do not skip the 10-minute resting time for proper binding.
  • Line your baking pan well with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
  • Slice the bread thinly as it is rich and perfect for spreads or toppings.
