πŸ‘¨β€πŸ³ How to Make It (Step-by-step)

βœ”οΈ Step 1: Prepare the Oats
Blend whole rolled oats (90 g) in a blender until fine.
πŸ’‘ Use a food processor for larger batches to save time.

βœ”οΈ Step 2: Combine Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, mix the ground oats, 1 tbsp sunflower seeds, 1 tbsp pumpkin seeds, 1 tsp baking powder and a pinch of salt.
πŸ’‘ Toast seeds beforehand for extra flavour.

βœ”οΈ Step 3: Add Wet Ingredients
Add 200 ml plain Greek yoghurt, 1 egg, and 0.5 tbsp apple cider vinegar to the bowl.
πŸ’‘ Use room temperature ingredients for a better rise.

βœ”οΈ Step 4: Mix the Batter
Stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
πŸ’‘ Let it rest for 5 minutes to hydrate the oats.

βœ”οΈ Step 5: Prepare the Baking Tin
Grease a 24×10 cm tin with a little oil or use parchment paper.
πŸ’‘ Lining the tin ensures easy removal.

βœ”οΈ Step 6: Pour and Smooth the Batter
Spoon the batter into the tin and spread it evenly.
πŸ’‘ Tap the tin gently to release air bubbles.

βœ”οΈ Step 7: Garnish the Top
Sprinkle with extra pumpkin and sunflower seeds.
πŸ’‘ Press them lightly into the surface to stick.

βœ”οΈ Step 8: Bake the Bread
Bake in a preheated oven at 180Β°C for 30–35 minutes.
πŸ’‘ Insert a toothpick – it should come out clean.

βœ”οΈ Step 9: Cool Before Slicing
Let the bread cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then remove and cool completely.
πŸ’‘ This helps prevent crumbling.

βœ”οΈ Step 10: Slice and Serve
Cut into 6 slices and enjoy warm or at room temperature.
πŸ’‘ Delicious with cottage cheese or avocado.
