A customer at a farmer’s market recently gave me the outline for this recipe.I love it, what a treat it is!  It is one of best breads I have eaten since I gave up wheat.and gluten, It’s so good I wouldn’t want to swap it for ordinary bread. Try it sweet or savoury; great for breakfast, lunch or picnics, snacks and even canapes.

Low carb, low starch, sugar-free

Another bonus with these ingredients, this bread is low carb, low GI, and super-filling and more sustaining than normal brad or gluten-free loaves.. It has lots of fibre so it’s useful for weight loss diets when you want a slice of bread.  It’s also good new if you are cutting down on carbs for a diabetic diet.

Healthier bread

Nutritionally this bread is in a different league to ordinary bread. This is not like other gluten-free breads, it is just made from really high-quality ingredients  and it is full of super beneficial nutrients. Linseed gives you lots of omega-3, there’s generous amounts of tummy-friendly fibre from all the seeds and nuts which also provide the important nutrients such as protein, omega-3, protein, minerals and vitamins.  The oat-bran adds to the linseed’s soluble fibre and makes it heart-healthy as it helps lower cholesterol.

  • Fibre-soluble and insoluble
  • Omega-3
  • Higher in protein,
  • Rich in minerals and vitamins.

Digestion-friendly

All the good things for providing all the best sorts of fibre for a healthy, regular comfortable digestion, ground linseed (flax), oat bran, chia, psyllium husk and no dairy, no wheat which makes this a brilliant alternative to traditional loaves. Enjoy,

Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 75 g Flax Porridge or Gluten-free Oat bran or Super Seedy Porridge or Muesli, if you don't want grains try Flax Farm Luxury Buckwheat & Flax porridge with Quinoa
  • 50 g Flax Farm Gold Ground Linseed (flax) Flax Farm Ground Bronze linseed is just as good.
  • 50 g Coconut flour Or other gluten-free high fibre flour or wholegrain flake
  • 25 g ` Psyllium husk powder
  • 25 g Chia seed
  • 25g g Hazelnuts or other nuts or seeds
  • 25 g Almonds or other nuts or seeds
  • 60 g pumpkin seed
  • 60 g Sunfower seeds
  • 30 g Whole Linseed
  • 40 g Flax Farm Cold-pressed or olive oil or melted coconut oil
  • 400 g Water
  • 1-2 Tbs Yacon syrup, raw honey, maple syrup or malt extract Optional
  • 1-2 tsp Sea or Himalayan rock salt or Golden Sunshine Salt Optional

Method
 

  1. Weigh out dry ingredients into a bowl.
  2. Measure water and oil and syrup/honey if used)into a jug and add to dry ingredients. Mix well. Leave to stand for at least an hour or even overnight in the fridge.
  3. It's best to line your container with baking parchment unless it has a good non-stick surface. Spoon mix into a 2lb loaf tin, or any container of the right size, glass Pyrex gratin dish, casserole etc or even place on a lined baking tray and form into a loaf shape. It can also be made into individual roll shapes.
  4. Bake for 45 minutes at 170oC. Keep an eye on it to make sure it doesn't burn, if it start to go too dark on top cover with greaseproof paper and lower the oven temperature by 10 degrees.
  5. Turn out and allow to cool.
  6. Gluten-free, low-carb paleo, bread toast and marmalade

Notes

If you don't have oat-bran simply use a Flax Farm  Linseed Breakfast Porridge or Muesli. The Gluten-Free Linseed Porridge  or Gluten-free Super Seedy Linseed Porridge/Muesli are both really good options with plenty of soluble-fibre in the ground linseed to replace the heart-healthy soluble fibre of the oat bran.
Don't eat oats? Grain-free? Avoiding all cereals? Paleo? Then use Flax Farm's Special Linseed and Buckwheat porridge with Quinoa instead of Oat-bran
I usually make this without salt or syrup and it's great but do admit I prefer the flavour with a little salt. To salve my conscience I use a healthier option, Sunshine Salt which is specially formulated to be lower in sodium chloride (naughty) salt but rich in essential minerals.
