money on vitamins to supplement those missing nutrients. Reply MARGUERITE June 18, 2019 at 8:18 pm Do you know the carb count for this and the sugar count??? Reply KATE BAHNSEN July 14, 2019 at 6:45 am Hi Can I make this without flaxseeds? Will it still hold together or do you think I will need something to bind it? Egg? I can’t eat Flax 🙁 I have Coeliac disease and a massive wheat allergy so this bread looks good to me apart from the Flax seed Reply MARIE September 13, 2019 at 11:27 pm Try chia seeds? PRTA February 8, 2020 at 12:58 am I used linseeds instead of flaxseeds as I couldnt find any in the supermarket and it turned out fine!!!! Pingback: Soaked Oat and Nut Bread | On Our Heals TRACEY CREMINS June 6, 2019 at 12:34 am Hi there, I’m just wondering how this bread would go on a Ketogenic Diet. From what I can see, it would be a great addition. What’s your thoughts? Reply EVY June 25, 2019 at 8:01 pm there are lots of keto recipes on the web that are nut and seed bread type things with any number of variations that are similar to this 🙂 Reply YVIE VAN DE VEGTE July 3, 2019 at 2:16 am Yes I was thinking the very same as oats are good for you and the carb count is relatively low if you work it out. I have recently come across OAT FIBRE (not bran /flour but FIBRE) that has equal carbs to fibre so comes out zero net carbs so I am going to experiment with substituting half the rolled oats with oat fibre which would reduce the carbs even more. I guess you could use almond flour and oat fibre but I
{ "page_id": null, "source": 7370, "title": "from dpo" }
don’t like that marzipane flavour . I think its about experimenting perhaps all the oats could be replaced with oat fibre to really push the carbs down. Food for thought :)) Reply YVIE VAN DE VEGTE July 6, 2019 at 2:43 am I made this delicious bread exactly as Sarah ‘s and it id delicious . I then thought to reduce the carbs by replacing half the oats with oat fibre (thats not bran but fibre ) this has a value of zero net carbs . You could not have told the difference but the carb count was very reduced. There are lots of people tweeking this recipe and it is really one of the very best on the internet .Thank you Sarah. Just experiment to reduce the carbs till you get what you want. Reply YVONNE MENERE July 11, 2019 at 1:12 am I was wondering the same Tracey. I suspect not because of the oats. I wonder if I could substitute oats with almond flour. Reply VANESSA June 5, 2019 at 2:32 pm Thanks for sharing! I love the suggestion to cut up before freezing so you can have some quick toast!

Enjoy! xo, Sarah B JOANNE August 5, 2019 at 4:23 pm For anyone else wondering about whether or not to use whole almonds, I have found the bread slices better if the almonds are roughly chopped.

Microwaving it about 22 seconds, then toasting it for 4 to 5 minutes finishes it up. I used to toast it less. Do what works for your taste.

ELIZABETH December 3, 2018 at 10:13 am I have been making this bread for several years. I now use Cassava instead of the oats to be grain free, I use pumpkin seeds instead of sunflower, I omit the sweetener, add 2 to 3 scoops of grass-fed beef gelatin and 2 cups of water. I usually use my homemade ghee from June butter to get the nutrients. I also bake it for 45 minutes after I flip it. I saw below someone added raisins – I will try that for my son.

have always heard that ground flax seeds are the way to go, simply because you can’t digest them well. I make this bread using the ground flaxseed. Hope this helps! Susan. Reply KARLYN August 18, 2020 at 3:48 pm Susan, you are correct about ground flax being the way to go. Whole flax seeds may pass through your intestine undigested, which means you won’t get all the flax seed health benefits. Are you just substituting 1/2 cup ground flax meal for 1/2 cup flax seed? Are you making any other adjustments because of the change? MARIA CLAPS May 13, 2018 at 1:46 pm You could have low stomach acid or it could be the lectins in the nuts and seeds that are giving you a problem. As healthy as this bread seems/looks, does not mean it will work for everyone. My bet is on low stomach acid though…we need that for proper digestion and assimilation. Reply RACHEL June 22, 2018 at 8:20 pm I eat flax seeds and flax meal all the time and never have a problem with digesting them but when I made this bread – I noticed it was harder on my tummy so figured it was the psyllium husk since that’s a fiber bomb. Perhaps it takes some getting used to (like beans). Love the bread though and I know you can’t omit that ingredient. Reply RACHEL June 24, 2018 at 9:50 pm Hello Nina, yes, try to alter the recipe. I make it only with these things: Oats, sunflower seeds, psyllium seed husks and/ or psyllium husk powder, salt, bread seasoning (caraway, coriander and fennel) and water.

the best! Reply MARYANNE JOHANSON November 26, 2018 at 10:31 pm When using psyllium, it is best to start slowly, otherwise it can cause digestive distress. Reduce the psyllium to 2-3 teaspoons, then 1 tablespoon, etc, increasing each time you make it. I found a sliced life changing recipe and I prefer it, leaving out the oats and substituting for 1-2 cups finely chopped nuts. Less carbs too. Let it sit in the bowl for an hour or two. pack into 1/4 cup and drop out onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Flatten to 1/4 inch. bake 30 min. Then turn over with a spatula and bake another 30 min. You will get chrisp cracker slices that can be toasted or eaten right out of the oven. Freeze great too.

Wow. Snooty bread peeps: move on. I digress, I love this food blog and the community & ideas I find in the comments, (and the unique recipes that are much respite from animal-cruelty-filled recipes elsewhere). I have made this loaf many times over. All my GF friends love it. All my vegan friends love it. Basically, all my peeps love it. I have made it subbing oats with quinoa, as well as quinoa flakes. The best combo by far is Quinoa Flakes w/GF Oats – 1c. of Quinoa Flakes + 1/2 c. GF Oats. It is a perfect consistency – straight Quinoa was too crumbly. I have tried Amaranth, but it too was a little too crumbly. Because Quinoa Flakes are expensive (as is almond flour), I will try Amaranth Flour and see how it goes. My favorite sweet version (as mentioned above) is adding 1T. cinnamon and 1/4t. cardamom with raisins – cranberries have too much sugar. A more “herb-y” version – skipping the maple syrup – is adding 2t. caraway seeds 1/4 t. nutmeg 1/4 t. dried thyme. It’s lovely toasted with miyokos vegan butter or a cashew butter spread on top.

I just made this for the first time yesterday, but it sounds like your bread didn’t sit long enough before going into the oven, to give time for everything to bind. Your water and ghee should have been absorbed into the other ingredients before going into the oven. I lost a few of my nuts and seeds to the bottom of the oven when I flipped it, but the rest of it was a pretty solid mass. (I let it sit for about 3 hours before putting it into the oven.) Reply JASMINE May 14, 2018 at 6:34 am Hi Shokufeh, I would think that was the problem also but I let the bread sit for over 24 hours so it definitely had plenty of time to sit, i did substitute the the oats for almond flower after reading another commentor who did the same.. Still need to retry. :/ Pingback: The Life-Changing Loaf of Bread – Maxiemama Pingback: "Life changing" Brot aus Nüssen und Samen - glutenfrei, low carb [Inspiriert] - Greeny Sherry - Vegane Rezepte & grün(er)leben | vegan food & lifestyle Pingback: How to Easily Change Your Life TERRY February 23, 2018 at 9:03 pm Hi, just wanted to say I love this bread and it is a total game changer!

Can you slow bake this bread under 50degrees celcius for a much longer time with the same outcome? Could somebody maybe enlighten me also about basic bread making? Will it hold better if the dough is more wet if dry? If there is the same amount of physllium and flax for example….. thank you!

Reply CATHERINE L January 27, 2018 at 1:00 pm I have been making this loaf for about a year and always found the same problem until recently when I introduced a new method of combining the ingredients: Step 1. Combine oats (I
{ "page_id": null, "source": 7370, "title": "from dpo" }
use whole oats rather than rolled oats as they are less crumbly), sunflower seeds, almonds (I chop them so they don’t break up the loaf later when slicing) and flax/linseeds in the loaf tin. Step 2. In a separate bowl, combine the water, salt (dissolve it), then add the chia seeds, psyllium husks, coconut oil and maple syrup (if using, I never have). Mix well and let sit a few minutes to start to thicken up. Once thickening, add to the dry ingredients and combine well. This method has made a HUGE difference for me, as it enables me to evenly distribute the binding liquid throughout the dry ingredients. The loaf sticks together so well now I can even slice it warm from the oven with a good bread knife and eat hot with butter! Hope this helps. Reply SARAH BRITTON January 30, 2018 at 8:44 pm Hello Catherine, Thank you very much for the updated directions!

Bake Reply DIJANA March 1, 2018 at 2:16 pm Hi Justyna, I think it is the type of oats you used that can cause the bread to crumble. There are stabilised and unstabilised oats you can buy. The stabilised ones are treated with heat and more dry and therefore a bit more chewier. They can not absorb much liquid as they ‘skin’ is sealed and stays kind of dry. I think Sarah B has used the fluffy, soft unstabilsed oats which can absorb moisture better, which is the key for holding the bread together as the
{ "page_id": null, "source": 7370, "title": "from dpo" }
seeds keep the bread crumbly enough. I had the same issue when I used stabilised oats. You shall be able to check this either on the package or if you buy them in a healthy store ask staff. The difference is actually noticeable when you have both oats types in your hands. Hope this helps everyone to get around the crumble issue. Reply JOHANNA May 9, 2018 at 1:36 pm Today I tried giving the dry ingredients a quick blitz in the food processor to make everything a smaller/similar size before mixing with the wet ingredients. Not too much, not blitzed to a powder or anything. Worked for me – the bread is much less crumbly this way! Reply Pingback: Treats | Super Easy Farmhouse Bread - Make&Mess LAURENT January 23, 2018 at 6:13 pm I’m sad after reading all the other success stories with this loaf, my first attempt hasn’t worked so well. After baking for well over 70 minutes when slicing the loaf the texture inside is still squidgy, almost ‘doughy’. It’s also shiny which makes me think it needs more time in the oven. But I’m thinking how much longer! I used a 9×4 inch non stick loaf tin, allowed the mixture to sit for 8 hours and baked in a fan assisted oven. Does any experienced bakers have any tips? Reply SARAH BRITTON January 23, 2018 at 7:27 pm Hi Laurent, Sorry to hear your first loaf didn’t turn out as expected! It sounds like you may need less water or more psyllium in your mix.

Maybe it is a combination of both, stabised oats, too much water or not enough psyllium husk or chia seeds? I think you should give it another go with unstabilsed soft oats.

Reply THOMAS November 25, 2017 at 9:51 am Also, I have baked it for more time than in the recipe to create the hard crust, usually 60-70 minutes. You knock on it to see when there is a crust with hollow sound. JO MASSINGHAM February 1, 2018 at 7:01 pm I make this bread pretty regularly and can offer some help with the crumbling problem.

of the rest of you, from a newby: I have read that soaking nuts, seeds, and grains helps increase their nutritional value or make the nutrients more available. I’ve also read that flax needs to be ground for you to get most of its benefit, because of the coating on the seeds. So I am curious: – does the ‘resting’ part of this recipe after you mix the ingredients have similar benefits to sprouting, even though the seeds and grains are fully sitting in liquid? Would this increase if you let it sit for more time as opposed to two hours, and would it be worthwhile to look for raw almonds, etc. that can sprout? – does this work with flax also, and make the nutrients more available without grinding? Or would it be best to grind the flax if you want the most nutritional bang for your buck? Thanks for the great recipe! I have made it once and am looking forward to doing so again. I gave my flax seeds a quick grind in the coffee grinder and let the loaf sit overnight; it wasn’t until afterwards that I started wondering if maybe grinding wasn’t necessary to make the flaxseeds’ nutrients accessible because of the time that the dough sits before it’s baked. Thanks! Reply DIANE W May 26, 2018 at 11:40 pm My husband loves this bread! Fairly miraculous. I am curious about flax too. Can someone weigh in?

Then you could consider trying the recipe with more chia and ground flax with the possible addition of a small amount of xanthium gum or guar gum. No garuntee on the results. Reply NICOLE May 20, 2017 at 6:54 pm It sounds like you might be allergic or sensitive to something you put in it. It is possible to be allergic to psyllium seeds. Or, you may be unused to eating whole grains, and when you make the switch to a higher fiber diet it’s best to do it very, very slowly or else you will initially be very gassy. It would get better with time, if this is the case. If it’s an psyllium allergy it would only get worse.

Aside from the psyllium, which is a must, I’ve made almost every substitution known (I always use oats) and add dried fruit, coconut, etc. I also add spices and usually leave out the maple syrup, using no sugar at all (plenty sweet from dried fruits).Today, I used walnuts, cashews, almonds and I always use ground flax seed, never adding extra water. For those questioning the psyllium, yes, it’s required but it easy to find. The Big Box Store near you carries, in the laxative section, a product called Konsyl, which is 100% powdered psylium, and gluten and sugar free. Think Metamucil, without all the crap added. It works fantastically. A 15.9 oz bottle (with burgundy cap) runs about $14-$15 and will last you MONTHS, even with baking this recipe. Oh! I also cut back on my psyllium to 2 T since I’m using ground flax seed already. 3 T is whopping bunch of psyllium to ingest, esp. if you mistakenly (!!) –whoops—eat more than one piece of this delicious nut loaf (bread, I still call it). Wonderful! Reply VITTORIA August 5, 2017 at 7:14 pm I just wanted to confirm that I almost always use ground flax instead of whole flax and it always turns out perfectly. I do not adjust the water.

am I have tried this bread twice and each time it has a bitter soapy taste – not sure what I did wrong!!! Reply ANNIKA March 15, 2017 at 11:23 pm Hey Sabine, I found it a bit soapy too but not too unpleasant. Have you tried to toast it? I found that fixed everything! In fact I even toast it so that the corners get quite crunchy and yummy! Hope this helps, good luck! 🙂 PATRICIA March 28, 2017 at 5:43 pm Hey Sabine, Have been making this twice a month since Sarah post this on her website and never had that experience….the only thing that could make this bread taste bitter & soapy is that one are more of the ingredient you used wasn’t fresh or on the border of the expire date. To avoid that I suggest that you but all your nuts in the freezer, the chia seed, flax & psyllium seed husk in the fridge. If your not a big oat eater I suggest that you do the same. Hope that help. MARIA April 1, 2017 at 6:55 pm Hi there The first time I tried this bread I was too lazy to melt the coconut oil so I used an “already liquified” coconut oil. (It doesn’t say fractionated on the bottle but I suppose it was) It smelt bad when cooking and the taste was horrible, soapy and of chemicals. Toasting the bread had no effect, it was still inedible. The second time I tried I used melted ghee and it was delicious! I will try again with melted coconut oil (which I will melt myself) and see if that changes things. Hope this helps!

recipe (except I chop up the hazelnuts to spread the love around) with great results. My 2nd batch I ran out of flax seeds and used ground flax with the addition of a little extra water. Still perfect results. Then I tried adding a little extra maple syrup, cinnamon, and golden raisins. UH.MAY.ZING. Another thing I figured out… I have a tiny stomach (gastric sleeve surgery) and I can’t eat very much at all. Like half a cup at a time. I make this in muffin form instead of a loaf since that’s about my stomach size. I make it in a bowl, let it rest 2-12 hours, squish handfuls into the muffin pan, and then keep the 2nd bake phase to 30 minutes. It still works perfectly. I LOVE THIS BREAD! Thank you!

Is your suggestion to “never re-freeze anything” related to cooking safety or taste and texture, or other reasons? I need educating. Thanks. CELIA March 1, 2017 at 10:26 pm Hi Tiana and Suzanne, the “never re-freeze” thing is supposedly for sanitary/safety reasons. I grew up in a never re-freeze family, BUT a biologist friend of mine, who loves examining colonies of bacteria under her microscope, told me it was BS, and that there’s no problem
{ "page_id": null, "source": 7370, "title": "from dpo" }
with re-freezing food (unless, obviously, it has been defrosted in an unsanitary way – like, not in the fridge or cooked while frozen – or if it’s very sensitive “food”, like dead animals…). With bread in general, and this one in particular, the main reason to avoid re-freezing would be the change of texture, a weird freezer taste that could possibly appear, and the coconut oil could turn rancid . Try toasting the slices before re-freezing them, to evaporate the extra moisture and avoid any change in flavours. KPOPOST January 16, 2017 at 11:19 pm just made your bread -love it! So tasty with the coconut oil and the crunchy hazelnuts – and healthy too Ps love your raw brownies tooooo!!! Made them loads of times – they really satisfy that sweet fix! uyee Reply STEVE WAGAR January 13, 2017 at 8:50 pm I’ve made this 5 times now with variations. It is genius. Psyllium replaces yeast to bind and eliminates the need for so much grain and opens the door to more seeds, nuts and fruit than ordinary bread. I am a fruitarian, which (for me) means 80% fruit/lettuce and 20% “cheats” — this is high on my cheat list. I add 1 oz each of raisins, dates and goji berries to “fruit” it up a bit — adds sweetening without syrups. Also I add lots of pumpkin pie spices — cinnamon, allspice, cloves, nutmeg, ginger.

It is definitely on my to do list for this week. I’ve tried to read as many comments as possible, and they are great. However, I didn’t see if anyone had tried to make this bread using farro. If I wanted to add farro to this bread, not removing any other ingredient, what other adjustments would I need to make? Reply TRISH January 16, 2017 at 12:52 am Let us know how using farro worked out PLEASE. My first loaf is in the oven as I type. I DID use farro. I cooked (boiled) it just a little to soften it up just a bit. I’d test it as is boiled slowly to keep it al dente. HOWEVER, I’m sure I messed it up in more ways than one. I had to use Flax powder instead of seed which means, I think, more water was necessary BUT I used a little less water because I also I cut back a little on the oatmeal thinking it would all balance out. As I tried to get it onto a cookie sheet it began to fall apart & separating into several cracks. I didn’t have a loaf pan. (I had left it over night wrapped in plastic wrap holding it together. This morning when trying to take the plastic wrap off it was wanting to just fall apart. One end did fall off, I pushed it all back together, squeezed a bit & told it to “stay there”. I’m sure I’m going to now end up with

granola instead of something I’d be able to slice. Oh well, if it tastes good….no problem. If it turns out ok I’ll post here again but I think it’s safe to assume that I’m now making granola. Reply TRISH January 17, 2017 at 3:03 am Follow up! MEH! Actually I love the taste & feel healthy eating it..ha ha….but all of my substitutions messed it up a bit. I needed more liquid. Next time I’ll do that. I did end up with some extra cooked Farro & I’d never had it before….I like it a lot; in a cold salad, or soup or oatmeal. Adaptable in the same way rice or quinoa might be…or barley.

Reply SANDRA September 26, 2016 at 2:44 pm I have tried using mixed spice (Ingredients Coriander, Cinnamon, Ginger, Nutmeg, Clove). These are the modifications I have made to the original recipe (qty is for 2 loves of bread): 1) I add 2 tsp mixed spice 2) I add 2 tsp frozen chopped orange & lemon peel (I find it useful when oranges are in season in the winter & I save all the rind & chopped them & freeze them allowing me to use throughout the year for my carrot & this bread & muffin) 3) I omit maple syrup but use 1 small ripe mashed banana for 2 loaves 4) I omit coconut oil but use olive oil & add 2 tbsp desiccated coconut 5) I use 12 tbsp ground flax seed stirred into 3 times the amount of water ie 36 tbsp water in a mixing bowl . When most of the water is absorbed by the flax seed I add the other wet ingredients like oil, frozen peel & mashed banana. In another bowl I mix all the dry ingredients together. I find it easier to gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ones in a mixing bowl. When all the mixture are completed mixed, I scoop them to the silicone loaf pans. In my 1st attempt, I found the bread not cooked completely using the times specified & I had to put them back in the oven for a further 15mins. Being that I use ground flax seed, I increase the total cooking time by 15mins, ie, 1st half of baking in silicone loaf pans by 5mins (25mins) & 2nd half

MAZ September 23, 2016 at 12:28 am Is sugar (maple/honey/stevia) really important from ‘turning a bunch of nuts and seeds into a loaf of bread’ point of view or is it about a balance of taste? I would like to leave it out all together. Has anyone tried? Reply TESS October 14, 2016 at 12:04 pm I’ve made it now 3 times without any sweetener of any kind and it’s still very tasty.

I love this loaf bread I will come back again for picking up any recipe from your site thank you. Reply KATHLEEN September 10, 2016 at 5:26 pm I have made this bread many times, and now double the recipe, baking in two pans that measure 8 1/4″ by 4 1/2 ” (measured at top of pan). I substitute 1/2 cup of yogurt or kefir for an equal amount of water (for doubled recipe) to break down phytic acid, which makes grains more digestible. The “dough” is packed into parchment paper lined pans, covered with parchment paper loosely, and rests for 24 hours at room temperature. We especially like it toasted and spread with ricotta cheese and homemade raspberry jam. Be sure to refrigerate or freeze, as it gets moldy in a warm kitchen. For soaking grains: Reply CAROLE September 4, 2016 at 3:22 pm Can someone tell me how much extra water to add to the recipe if the flaxseeds are ground? Reply SANDRA T September 8, 2016 at 4:29 am Generally, you need 3 times of water for the amount of ground flax seeds eg, for 2tbsp of grd flax seeds you need to stir in 6tsbp of warm water & let it sit for 10mins. Reply ELEONORA September 1, 2016 at 8:10 pm Made this today, but used buckwheat instead of oats. I also added some lingonberries I had in the freezer. It turned out perfect. This recipe is beautiful. Haven’t tried toasting or anything yet but it’ll probably be even better. Reply VICKI September 10, 2016 at 9:29 pm I would like to use buckwheat instead of oats. Did you use the same measurement of buckwheat as the oats in the recipe? Thanks so much for sharing! Reply CHRIS October 15, 2016 at 6:03 am

This recipe is definitely a keeper, thanks Sarah 🙂 Reply KATE August 19, 2016 at 6:58 am Thank you, thank you for this recipe! I have been making it weekly for the past 4 months or so and cannot remember life without a loaf in the fridge! It’s my daily staple for breakfast. To anyone wanting to try substitutions – just try, the recipe is so forgiving. Every single week I do something different, depending what I have on hand. If I add lots more nuts (common – this week I added a cup of pecans in addition to the almonds) then I add a touch more water until it feels right. I also tried cacao nibs this week. Delicious! They perfectly complement the coconut oil. Reply ANA September 23, 2016 at 1:10 am Love trying different things too! I’m thinking of adding spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, etc) to make a sweetish version.

Your recipe rocks, I’m really excited to try it…thanks! Reply SARAH BRITTON August 9, 2016 at 11:21 am Great Jeanette! It is such perfect fuel this bread! Just finished a slice myself 😉 Happy baking <3 xo, Sarah B Reply ACR August 4, 2016 at 3:55 pm I made this and it was good! I am looking for a quick portable breakfast, so I put mine in a muffin tin. I followed a comment’s advice and blended the dry ingredients in a food processor and added .5 extra cup of water. I made 6 muffins the first time, then put the dough in the fridge and kind of forgot about it. More than a week later, I baked the rest of the dough. I did add more water. Instead of putting them directly on the oven rack, I used a pizza tray with holes in it. This made 18 short muffins. BTW, I really like that the ingredients were in weights! Question: I used roasted sunflower seeds b/c that’s all that I could find. Do you use salted or unsalted? I used unsalted, and I am thinking you may have used salted b/c this definitely needed more salt. Reply TAIDA August 24, 2016 at 1:49 pm I use organic unroasted sunflower seeds. I always double the recipe
{ "page_id": null, "source": 7370, "title": "from dpo" }
and thenI put 1 tablespoonful of salt – but even more could be used! If I put only 2 teaspoonfuls like in the recipe it would be way too low-salted for my taste. But also this can be adjusted. When you bake, you notice what changes you personally need. 🙂 Ps. This bread really changed my life! Virpi Mikkonen in Kiitos hyvää blog (a Finnish health blog) wrote the recipe in Finnish and I found it there like a year ago or so. Since then my breakfast problems have been solved! Reply LYNN July 31, 2016 at 2:42 pm Dear Sarah, this IS definately a really amazing and tasty bread, for sure. But after realising how many calories it has, I was shocked!! It might be good fats and carbs and lots of fibre as well, but at the end of the day, there are people (like me) who have to look down for the calories. Having 180-220 calories per slice (and I definately have to eat at least two slices to eat myself full, this is a huge factor and has to be pointed out! It might be a healthy alternative to usual bread with flour, but definately with health restrictions for some of us as well. Reply SARAH BRITTON August 1, 2016 at 8:58 am Hi Lynn, Thanks for the feedback! Yes, I know this is a very calorie-dense food, but they’re all GOOD calories! If the rest of your diet is full of low-calorie plants, then you have found the right balance. For anyone who is on a seriously calorie-conscious diet, this may be best eaten occasionally as a treat 🙂 Glad you enjoyed the recipe!

carbs. ALEX November 4, 2016 at 1:51 pm Maybe put in less coconut oil (and sugar)… I made this loaf about a year ago or so and found it a tad bit too oily and sweet, but still yummy. I will try to make it again in the couple next days and will try to put “just” one tablespoon oil in it and less sugar… Reply KC July 27, 2016 at 1:13 pm I just finished eating my first slice and it’s delicious! Thanks for developing and share this recipe. It’s pretty flexible. (I forgot the 1 1/2 cups oatmeal till after it sat for an hour but I added 1 cup at that point and it mixed in fairly easily; I let it sit overnight). I baked it in one of those glass convection table top ovens, 320 degrees F for the times given. Condensation all over the glass sides of course, a little concerning at first — loaf a bit moister than expected but that is so much better than too dry and crumbly! And it may be from the convection oven, heating it longer would have dried it some. Also as noted I didn’t have the entire 1.5 cups of oatmeal. ps: Toasted a second slice…crisped up a bit, very nice. Hope the psyllium plays gently on my system but 3 Tablespoons of the powder in the entire loaf should not be a problem. Reply CAROL July 26, 2016 at 11:18 am I really like your blog.

July 7, 2016 at 1:53 am I finally tried this and it turned out amazing! Here are the changes I made: I cannot process almonds and I don’t like sunflower seeds so much, so i did 1 full cup Hazelnuts + 1/2 cup Sunflower seeds instead. I also used Ground Flax Meal which i normally keep stored in the freezer to help keep it fresh. The flax meal simply meant longer baking time by about 10 mins. I used a regular loaf pan lined with parchment paper that hung over the sides so i could easily lift it out after 20 mins. I also placed mine on a SILPAT and flipped it halfway through the 2nd round of baking. THANK YOU!!! Reply ASHA June 30, 2016 at 11:42 pm Has any one tried to make this without coconut oil or ghee? My husband hates the taste of both of these oils. He does not mind any other oil (ironically) but I cant think of another oil that is solid at room temp, so maybe they wont work? Any other thoughts? I tried it with coconut oil but he immiditaly tasted it and would not have it. Reply MARILYN July 3, 2016 at 9:21 pm I left the oil out by accident once and the bread turned out just fine. I now just add 1 Tblsp. of oil and it still is good. I don’t see why olive oil wouldn’t work as my coconut oil liquifies in the heat and I have used it that way in the bread. Reply MAMINO July 4, 2016 at 5:07 pm Hi. I use Suma’s odourless organic coconut oil that neither smells nor tastes of coconut, at all.

Reply DONNA August 6, 2016 at 5:36 pm Yes..I added NO oil. Perfect results. This is such a high fat recipe. Oil is not necessary. The end result is much better without that extra added grease. Eliminating good the oil reduces calories as well. Reply JULIE W August 6, 2016 at 8:21 pm You can try the refined coconut oil that has no taste. I get organic refined coconut oil by the gal online. Reply SARAH BRITTON August 9, 2016 at 11:26 am Hi Julie and Ahsa, Try expeller-pressed coconut oil. It has no flavour but has been processed properly. Hope that helps! Sarah B TAIDA August 24, 2016 at 1:55 pm This happened for me, too, as I hate the taste of coconut oil. At first I used olive oil, and it worked well. Nowadays I don’t use oil at all. I only put oil in the pan before putting the dough there, to avoid it sticking to the walls of the pan (though it makes it anyway, maybe I should use baking paper). So for me olive oil and rapeseed oil work well, the only change I noticed was better taste! Reply DANIELA September 16, 2016 at 6:05 pm I made it with olive oil and it was still so delicious!

Excessive heat can have detrimental effects on the nutritional value of honey. Heating up to 37°C (98.6 F) causes loss of nearly 200 components, part of which are antibacterial. Heating up to 40°C (104 F) destroys invertase, an important enzyme. Heating up to 50°C (122 F) for more than 48 hrs. turns the honey into caramel (the most valuable honey sugars become analogous to sugar). Heating honey higher than 140 degrees F for more than 2 hours will cause rapid degradation. Heating honey higher than 160 for any time period will cause rapid degradation and caramelization. Generally any larger temperature fluctuation (10°C is ideal for preservation of ripe honey) causes decay. -John Skinner, University of Tennessee “ PAM O'CONNELL March 31, 2016 at 2:21 am I replace half of the flax seeds with millet.

Did your savory try out work well?! Thanks! Reply KATIE February 8, 2016 at 6:44 am A few questions – I scrolled down for like an hour (maybe not that much) and didn’t see anyone ask yet. And I don’t see that Sarah responds, so I’m hoping someone with a nutritionist back-ground will see and respond- Soaking the seeds/nuts – isn’t the point (in addition to kick off germination, resulting in a more digestible medium) to remove the phytic acid? And then the phytic acid and other anti-nutrients and just in the water than then gets cooked into the bread. So that goes agains Sarah’s love of pre-soaking seeds and nuts. Flax – isn’t it majorly heat sensitive? Cooking kills all good stuff about it. And also, when it’s not ground, we can’t actually access any
{ "page_id": null, "source": 7370, "title": "from dpo" }
of the nutrients – so ground flax would be better than whole – but then again it’s getting cooked… And someone said that ground flax was not healthy – why? General questions – not just for this post: Chia – anyone know how to get phytic acid off of chia?? Soaking it just turns it into goo. And eating it without soaking it just binds all other good micronutrients to which just get pooped out. And has anyone heard about regular chia consumption causing leaky gut symptom? And Sarah has mentioned that hemp hearts do not need to be soaked because they are already really digestible, but what about the anti-nutrients? Should they be soaked too? What about eating nuts regularly – we’ve been eating raw nuts forever, and soaked almonds are just yuck! Should we be soaking all our nuts? Walnuts too? Any way to make them yummier? Can you roast them after soaking, or would that kill the good stuff? Thanks anyone who can teach me a few things on these topics! Reply HILARY February 11, 2016 at 11:30 am To answer the soggy nut query – from what I have read, I understand you can soak and rinse nuts then dehydrate them at a low enough temperature to bring back the crunch without damaging nutrients.

Reply DORIS February 15, 2016 at 7:34 pm Great questions on nutrition since there’s so much info out there. I suggest soaking most nuts and seeds then draining that water before drying the nuts and seeds on a very low oven temp or dehydrator to retain nutrients. Roasting reduces phytic acid
{ "page_id": null, "source": 7370, "title": "from dpo" }
while the bread is baking. Flax is heat sensitive so yes, some nutrition is lost in roasting the bread. Ground flax oxidizes quickly so if you want to use this form, always grind some yourself to use right away. Never buy already ground flax. Sprouted chia, flax and hemp are actually beneficial for leaky gut due to the great fiber that supports good gut bacteria. After soaking and drying nuts, you get a yummy crunch. Hope that helps. Reply CLAUDIA March 26, 2018 at 3:19 pm For anyone who’s interested in phytates. Soaking activates an enzyme (phytase) that neutralizes phytates. That’s why soaking works. You are not soaking out the phytase. Here is an article that explains it relatively simply. It’s mostly about the benefits of phytates (yes, really). But if you scroll down to ;’Overcoming phytic acid as an anti nutrient,” you can read about how the enzyme action works in soaking, fermentation, and sprouting. JACQUELINE MAHONEY March 5, 2016 at 9:34 pm Hello! Do you have a breakdown of calories, carbs, fiber, protein, etc., for the Life Changing Bread? I can’t wait to try it! Reply GILLY April 6, 2016 at 2:33 pm I thought the same about the phytates so I soaked everything beforehand and it was much sloppier as expected (I didn’t dehydrate – that’s where I went wrong). It baked ok in the oven but ended up very crispy and raised on the outside and sloppy inside, so basically just too much water – hard to avoid with the soaked oats. I think i’ll next try soaking the nuts and seeds and draining and going with the rest of the original recipe and letting the oats soak in the mixture, that will at least reduce the anti-nutrients considerably.

pm Once you grind flaxseed, it begins to become rancid, so only grind it right before use. Or simply use it whole 🙂 Reply JOY February 6, 2016 at 3:33 pm I am quite intrigued and plan to try this recipe. Reply CELINE February 4, 2016 at 5:21 pm Great recipe! Came out just as in the picture and tasted delicious. I substituted pumpkin seeds for the nuts, which worked really well. Only thing: I found it crumbles quite a bit when I tried to cut some slices to freeze (it had cooled completely) – so I ended up eating three instead of one (oops). Should leaving it in the oven longer make it less crumbly? Reply TASHA February 10, 2016 at 3:29 pm Try giving the nuts and seeds a quick blitz first, and then add at least two cups of water. This comes out perfectly held together when I make it that way. Reply PATRICIA VALIQUETTE May 22, 2017 at 11:04 pm what is a blitz ?? TAZMIN A SHARIFF February 3, 2016 at 9:19 am i love this!! thank you!!! the first time i was making it, it never made it to the oven… i kept eating it each time i went by it.. yum! this is now the third time i made it and i am thrilled with it!! could you please provide the nutritional analysis? i realise it would vary with which nuts or seeds are used but it would be a great help to see the nutritional content of the nuts and seed that you have picked here. Reply LARISSA January 24, 2016 at 8:51 pm I have had this recipe book-marked for a while and finally tried it. Brilliant! It is just the hearty addition I need to go with my soups and
{ "page_id": null, "source": 7370, "title": "from dpo" }
salads for lunch. I halved the recipe and made a mini-loaf, no silicon loaf pan so I lined my metal pan with parchment paper. I’ve made it twice now, the second time with ground flax seed instead of whole and I think it held together better. Love this recipe. <3 Reply KRISTA January 26, 2016 at 3:51 am I just made it today! I think I will try it with the ground flax next time. I like the taste but the texture bothered my son. Maybe the ground flax will help that. 😉 Reply CAMILLA February 5, 2016 at 2:31 pm Ground flaxseeds contains thio-cyanate—a cyanide-like compound and should never be given to children. Some of it will be gone by hearing it but it’s still not recommend for children. JEN February 29, 2016 at 1:14 am I can’t find documentation that flax is detrimental to children (actually quite the opposite starting at ages 7-8 months).

Reply JANINE MORRISON January 3, 2016 at 5:36 pm I have been searching for a hearty breakfast option that didn’t include anything but a toaster. I grew up on homemade bread, toasted every single day however sadly I seem to be in the gluten intolerant camp so life with morning toast now means I often skip breakfast and have a second coffee instead (ahem.. i know i know). This turned out beautifully. I found everything i needed at the Bulk Barn but didn’t have a silicone pan so I used a

metal loaf pan but lined it with parchment so that I could pull it out easily after the initial 20 minutes. I put some butter and a bit of honey and OH MY! This bread is life changing and so easy to make ( I can see myself pre-mixing the dry stuff into ready to go portions so all i have to do is all the wet ingredients). Thank you EVER so much for sharing this truly life changing bread!! Reply GIGI January 2, 2016 at 6:50 pm Do you grease the pan? I don’t have silicon so I’ll be using a glass one.

Yesterday I prepared the loaf for first time, this one of the things you say WHY somebody didn’t tell me before.

Reply BRENDA January 31, 2016 at 12:37 am Wonder if, after baking time is done, leave the loaf in the oven after you have turned it off and let it cool in the heat a bit longer. Would that possibly help to make the center less damp? Also, have you checked your oven temp to make sure it is right? I keep reading/hearing about making sure our ovens are making the right temps! Just another thought as I typed! Reply ANNELIESE March 5, 2016 at 12:01 pm Follow the instructions in Sarah’s recipe! You have to remove it from the pan after the first 20 minutes and bake it further (not in pan). this should sort out the dampness. LONE MUCHOW March 11, 2016 at 3:33 pm I made it the other day for the first time,I love it, and what I did, I used a regular breadpan but used parchment paper in it and baked it for the 20 minutes, then I lifted it out of the pan, easy with the parchment paper , took that off and placed just the bread on the rack in the oven and baked for 40 more minutes, not damp at all after that, hope that helps you. Reply L March 19, 2016 at 4:01 pm I followed the instructions exactly and also checked my oven temperature was correct. I cooked it until it looked burnt on the outside but still wet inside. I did replace the oats with quinoa flakes as I can not eat oats and think this may be causing the problem. I just do not know how to fix it!

Reply KALI December 23, 2015 at 4:35 am Hi this is a fabulous recipe and we make it every week – especially great as I am intolerant to yeast and sour dough so this is the only bread I have been able to eat regularly for ages. TIP – I discovered by accident that if you use boiling water you do not need to soak the recipe overnight, or at all. Works perfectly every time. I also never bother with the maple syrup, or chia seeds as they are really expensive here. Reply GEORGIA December 22, 2015 at 1:07 pm salt error: The recipe calls for 1 tsp fine salt or 1/2 tsp coarse salt. Actually you need about twice as much coarse salt to equal fine salt because the large flakes don’t allow it to be as compact. This is possibly the reason some people find the bread tasteless: 1/2 tsp of coarse salt when they actually needed 2 tsp. Reply CLAIRE TOMPKINS March 17, 2016 at 8:50 pm I think it mean an additional 1/2 tsp of salt, on top of the 1 tsp. So that would be 1-1/2 tsp. coarse salt.

Okay, I’ve made this bread with both flax seed and the exact same amount of hulled hemp seeds, and I have to say I enjoy the hemp seed version better. They seem to be a better binder for the bread and less annoying when eating (flaxseeds always get stuck in my teeth!). That being said, this bread definitely IS life-changing. Two slices in the morning with the fruit + chia jam (which I’ve made with all sorts of fruits) keeps me full longer than any other breakfast I’ve tried!

LOREN November 2, 2015 at 5:48 am BC, I’ve made this recipe several times and though I’d say it’s definitely more crumbly than a traditional loaf of bread, it should still be sliceable (when it cools). I think getting it to the right consistency/texture while mixing everything together is quite important – it should super thick, almost pasty. Also, I press it down very firmly (I always use parchment paper + a metal loaf pan as well) into the pan, especially the corners and edges. I’ve baked it after letting it sit for only 6 hrs as well as overnight with similar/great results. The only other thing I can think of as to why it turned out so crumbly is if you didn’t stick to the ingredient list precisely (the pysllium husk for example)? Definitely give it another go though – it’s beyond good when you get it right! Good luck! And PS

I baked this bread today and had a few problems which I thought I’d share. First of all, I was working with a German translation of your recipe, so I didn’t have all the background information and thus was unaware that it’s supposed to be flour-free. Since I already had all the ingredients except the oats, I decided to substitute them with a gluten-free baking mix (rice, corn starch, millet, guar gum). Big mistake! After 20 minutes of baking I couldn’t get it out of the (metal) bread form, and it was clearly too unstable to scratch out with a knife. I left it in the form
{ "page_id": null, "source": 7370, "title": "from dpo" }
and baked it another 40 minutes. After cooling, I was able to get it out of the form, but when I cut it open, it was still completely wet inside. I put it back into the oven in a shallow baking pan at low temperature, checking every 20 minutes or so, and finally after two more hours(!), I said this is enough. It still seemed too moist in the middle, but it was nonetheless edible…and delicious! Another thing that may have contributed to my problems was that I had ground both the nuts and the flax seeds, since this is how I had always baked in the past, although one would think that should have made it drier and not wetter. Another theory is that I had left the dough out overnight, but covered in plastic wrap, so that might have prevented some of the water from evaporating. As you can tell, I’m no baking expert, but I’ll try it again soon with some gluten-free oats and this time I won’t grind the flax seeds. I’ll probably still grind the nuts though, since I think this more uniformly distributes their flavor. I also thought I’d line the bread form with baking paper for easier removal, and I’m glad someone already mentioned in the comments that this works. Thanks! P.S. I love the ideas in the comments about using hemp or sesame seeds, or leftover juice pulp instead of the oats. Reply ANNUSCHKA September 26, 2015 at 1:39 pm Wow!

I now use 1/2 cup sunflower seeds and 1’2 cup cashews, rest of nuts the same. I also added lots of cinnamon and 1/3 cup dried cranberries and it tastes wonderful – every who tastes it is a fan and following this recipe Reply KRISTINA September 23, 2015 at 5:41 pm Have to checked your flaxseed? Flaxseeds/linseeds go off very quickly and taste disgustingly rancid once this happened.

Reply Pingback: A Life-Changing Loaf of Bread (Redux) | the bona fide farm food journal DAVID August 1, 2015 at 6:31 pm I found this while hunting for replacement ideas for bread, as I’m currently on a low refined sugar/low carb diet. As the recipe stands, not for me unfortunately. The loaf looks amazing, but it lacks flavour (for my tastes anyway). I make my own granola, with similar ingredients, and suppose expected it to be something like that. But it just … wasn’t. I can, though, see the potential in this recipe. It needs tweaking for my tastes – perhaps by toasting the seeds and nuts before mixing, using some pumpkin seeds, maybe adding freshly grated/ground nutmeg or cinnamon, and a spoonful or two of raw honey. And as I’m not vegan, I’ll likely replace the coconut oil with butter. I quite like the idea of using dried fruits too, as previously suggested, to give this a good natural sweetness.

this bread numerous times in the last year and it always turns out amazing. My family and friends are in love with it too. I suggest you don’t give up on this yet. I once left out the salt by mistake and it turned out tasteless. I’m not sure if perhaps that’s what happened here. I also add some dried cranberries sometime. Reply KATIE June 13, 2015 at 3:29 am Did you try toasting it, I never eat mine without toasting it first. Reply SUSAN June 22, 2015 at 12:08 am The first time I made it I found it a bit bland too. I added walnuts the second time (and reduced the sunflower seeds) and used coconut milk instead of water. That added some much needed flavour. The third time I added a 1/2 a banana (blending the banana with the coconut milk first) and 1 tbsp of cocoa powder – delish! The nice thing about this recipe is that it allows for so many delicious variations, you just have to play around with it, knowing what flavours you prefer. Some may find it perfect as is, others may like to add a bit more sweetness (or cinnamon?) and different kinds of nuts. I also toasted my hazelnuts first and removed the skins. Good luck! Reply JENNY M. July 18, 2015 at 4:49 pm I second the toasting it comment…slicing it as thin as you can and toasting it is essential in my opinion. I also always top it with a little something like natural peanut butter too. It’s very satisfying, and will leave you feeling energized, not all heavy and blah like regular toast and PB will.

Whenever I meet anyone with egg, gluten or dairy allergies I send them this recipe. What I’m really doing here commenting (on the longest line of comments in history) is to tell you about a new use for this incredible recipe! One night, while trying to decide what to do for dinner and craving (as always) pizza, I thought to myself “I wish there was a GF vegan pizza crust as delicious as that bread over on MNR” and than it struck me: if you spread the “batter” out on a cookie sheet it can be!! I chipped up the nuts but otherwise kept everything the same. The beauty of this hack is that the waiting time is much quicker (I believe I let it sit for an hour before baking). I baked it for 30-40 minutes at 375, flipped it over and spread on some pesto, roasted butternut squash, caramelized onions, and a sprinkle of goat cheese before baking it an additional 15 minutes on high heat (450). Top it with some arugula, and you’ve got a hearty meal there. *pro tip- spread your dough out on parchment paper, lay another sheet on top and roll with a rolling pin to get it very thin without making a big mess!!
