Description

Flourless Nordic Nut and Seed Bread is a wholesome and nutrient-packed loaf full of crunchy nuts, hearty seeds, and rich natural flavors. This gluten-free bread uses simple, natural ingredients and a plant-based natural gelling agent to create a dense, satisfying texture. Inspired by traditional Nordic baking, it offers a deep, rustic taste that pairs beautifully with both sweet and savory toppings, perfect for a healthy lifestyle rich in protein, fiber, and healthy fats.

Ingredients

Scale

Mixed Nuts and Seeds

  • 100g almonds, roughly chopped
  • 100g walnuts, roughly chopped
  • 100g hazelnuts, roughly chopped
  • 50g pumpkin seeds
  • 50g sunflower seeds
  • 30g flax seeds
  • 30g chia seeds

Dry Ingredients

  • 40g ground flaxseed (natural gelling agent)
  • 2 tbsp coconut sugar (natural)
  • 1 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 200ml water

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Nuts and Seeds: Roughly chop the almonds, walnuts, and hazelnuts to create varied textures in the bread. Combine all nuts and seeds in a large mixing bowl. Optionally, toast them lightly in a dry pan to deepen the flavor.
  2. Mix the Dry Ingredients: Add the ground flaxseed (natural gelling agent), coconut sugar (natural), and salt to the nut and seed mixture. Stir thoroughly so that the gelling agent distributes evenly for a consistent texture.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients Carefully: In a separate bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), and water. Pour this mixture into the dry ingredients to activate the natural gelling agent and bring the dough together.
  4. Forming the Dough: Stir the mixture until it is thick and well combined. The dough should hold together firmly without being wet or sticky. If it feels too dry, add water one tablespoon at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
  5. Bake to Perfection: Transfer the dough into a lined loaf pan, pressing it down evenly. Bake in a preheated oven at 175°C (350°F) for 50 to 60 minutes until the edges turn golden and a skewer inserted comes out mostly clean with some moist crumbs. Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • Lightly toasting nuts and seeds intensifies flavor and adds a delightful crunch.
  • Use fresh nuts and seeds for the best taste and to avoid bitterness.
  • Do not overmix; stir only until combined to prevent a dense, tough texture.
  • Let the bread cool fully to set its texture and make slicing easier without crumbling.
  • Store the bread wrapped tightly or in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
