How to Make It

Difficulty: Easy

Overall Time: 2 hrs 30 min

Prep Time: 20 min

Cook Time: 1 hr +1 hr 10 min cooling time

Serves: Makes 1 loaf

Ingredients

Dough

¾ cup buckwheat flour
¾ cup super-fine almond flour
½ cup arrowroot flour
¼ cup flaxseed meal
¼ cup milled black chia seeds
½ tsp fine sea salt
¾ cup raw pumpkin seeds
¾ cup raw, shelled sunflower seeds
½ cup sliced almonds
2 tbsp flax seeds
2 tbsp sesame seeds
1 ¼ cup boiling water
¼ cup avocado oil
1 tbsp honey

Garnish

1 tbsp pumpkin seeds
1 tbsp raw, shelled sunflower seeds
1 tbsp flax seeds
1 tbsp sesame seeds

Instructions

Arrange oven rack in center of oven. Preheat to 350°F. Generously oil a 9 x 5-inch metal baking pan. Line the bottom with parchment overhanging the edges on two long sides.
For the dough, whisk together flours with flaxseed meal, chia seeds, and salt in a large bowl until no clumps remain. Stir in pumpkin and sunflower seeds, almonds, flax, and sesame seeds until combined. Make a slight well in the center. Then, pour in water, oil, and honey. Stir until no streaks remain. Let it stand to slightly thicken, about 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, for the garnish, stir seeds in a small bowl to combine. Set aside.
Scrape dough into prepared pan, firmly pressing down to fill completely. Smooth top. Sprinkle seed-mixture evenly over top, pressing lightly to adhere.
Bake in center of oven until springy when pressed, approximately 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let it cool, about 10 minutes. Carefully run a butter knife around unlined edges of pan to loosen. Using parchment edges, lift bread out of pan. Discard parchment. Let it cool completely, at least 1 hour.
