I’ve caught my mother eating dry slices of this bread in the kitchen! It tastes even better the day after you’ve baked it.
You need
- 4 cups (500 g) brown bread flour
- 5 tablespoons bran
- 1 tablespoon caraway seeds
- 150 g seed mixture (like linseeds, sesame seeds and sunflower seeds)
- 2 heaped tablespoons baking powder
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 565 ml sour milk (or milk mixed with two tablespoons brown vinegar)
- 1 tablespoon molasses or honey
- extra seeds
Here's how:
- Grease two small bread pans (19 x 11 cm) and preheat the oven to 200 ºC.
- Mix all the dry ingredients together. Make a hollow in the middle and pour in the milk and molasses. Mix with a wooden spoon. The batter should be runny and very sticky.
- Divide the batter between the two pans. Sprinkle extra seeds over the bread.
- Bake for 25 minutes at 200 ºC until the bread has risen completely. Don’t open the door!
- Lower the heat to 170 ºC and bake for an hour and 10 minutes.
- Unmold the bread and allow to cool. If you want to serve the bread for breakfast, bake it before going to bed the previous night.
