Multi-Seed Bread
This Multi-Seed Bread is one of those recipes that feels both rustic and intentional — dense, hearty, and deeply satisfying. It’s the kind of bread you slice slowly, toast gently, and top simply, because the flavour and texture already do most of the work. Packed with seeds and held together naturally, it has a beautiful crunch on the outside and a soft, nourishing bite inside.
What makes this loaf special is its balance: rich, nutty flavours paired with a subtle natural sweetness, and a structure that feels grounding and filling without being heavy. It’s perfect for savoury toppings like avocado, eggs, or cheese, but also works surprisingly well with something sweet like nut butter or jam. This is a “real food” kind of bread — minimal fuss, maximum nourishment, and incredibly satisfying to bake and eat.
