INGREDIENTS
300g flour
40g Quaker oats
50g pumpkin/sunflower seeds
½ tbsp bicarbonate of soda (9g)
½ tbsp salt
230g oat or soya milk
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp Quaker oats for coating
1 tbsp sunflower seeds for coating
RECIPE
1. Pour the lemon juice into the milk and leave for 10 minutes.
2. Put the flour into a bowl and add the Quaker oats, the seeds of your choice, the bicarbonate of soda and the salt.
3. Slowly add the milk while mixing with a spoon. While the mixture is turning into dough, start kneading with your hand. If it is too sticky you may have to add a little more flour (no more than 2 tablespoons otherwise it will get too thick).
4. Knead for 4-5 minutes, form a ball and put it on a baking tray lined with greaseproof paper.
5. Use a sharp knife to carve some grooves and sprinkle with Quaker oats and the sunflower seeds
6. Bake in a preheated fan forced oven at 180 degrees for 45 minutes until the top is lightly browned over. Then bake for a few more minutesuntila toothpick can be easily inserted and removed. Baking times vary for different ovens.
7. If you have an oven with a special bread baking programme (fan forced, humidity control or steam oven) feel free to use it.
Let the bread cool down and then slice.
