Kid-Friendly Superfood Bread

This recipe was originally inspired by Deliciously Ella’s  Superfood Bread. You never forget your first blogger crush. We’ve adapted this recipe so many times I cant even remember all the iterations. The latest version is my kid-friendly superfood loaf. It’s less nutty and seedy than the original recipe which makes it easier to chew and digest. Also I recently discovered teff flour which has taken this gf bread to the next level. Make it as a loaf or as little buns!

Ingredients
  • 1 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 1 cup of teff flour (or other gf flour)
  • 1 cup of raw almonds
  • 1/2 a cup of hemp seeds
  • 3 heaped tablespoons of psyllium husk powder
  • 1 tablespoon of chia seeds
  • 1/4 cup flax
  • few pinches of salt
  • 2 cups of cold water

 

Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  2. Put the almonds & the pumpkin seeds in the blender and blitz to a powder
  3. Pour the blended almond & pumpkin seed mixture into a large bowl
  4. Add all the other ingredients to the blow (except the water) and stir until well blended
  5. Slowly add the water. I like to add one cup, mix well. Wait a minute and add the next cup. You don’t want to overwhelm the mixture with water.
  6. Set the bowl aside for 5-10 minutes at room temp. This is when I like to clean up 🙂
  7. For loaf: Pour the mixture into a loaf tin. Either greased or lined up with parchment paper.
  8. For Buns: line baking sheet with parchment paper. spoon dough into large balls and flatten to desired thickness into decent sized buns.
  9. Either way, Bake in the oven for about 1 hour until cooked through.
