- loaf pan,
- Spatula
- Oven
- Oven
Ingredients
- 3 cups 468 g whole wheat flour
- 2 cups 480 ml buttermilk or sour milk, room temperature
- 2 teaspoons 10 g baking soda
- 2 tablespoons 30 ml olive oil
- ¼ cup 85 g honey
- 1 tablespoon 10 g sunflower seeds
- ¼ teaspoon 1.5 g salt
Instructions
- Heat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and lightly grease a loaf pan with olive oil or line it with baking paper so the bread won’t stick.
- In a large bowl, combine whole wheat flour, baking soda, salt, and sunflower seeds. Mix them well so everything is evenly distributed.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, honey, and olive oil until the mixture is smooth and fully blended.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and gently stir until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. Mix just enough to bring it together—don’t overwork it.
- Transfer the dough into the prepared loaf pan, smooth the top, and bake for 40–45 minutes until golden brown. Check doneness with a toothpick; if it comes out clean, it’s ready. Let it cool before slicing.
Notes
Notes: Do not overmix the batter; it keeps the bread soft. If no buttermilk is available, mix 2 cups milk with 2 tablespoons lemon juice and rest for 10 minutes. Let the wheat bread recipe no yeast cool completely before cutting to avoid crumbling.
