Life Changing Bread

Life-Changing Bread: A Nourishing, Wholesome Loaf

Is this bread truly life-changing? That’s a big claim—but once you try it, you’ll understand why! This nutrient-dense, high-fiber, and protein-packed loaf is made with wholesome seeds, nuts, and whole grains. It’s also naturally gluten-free (when using certified gluten-free oats) and completely vegan.

Unlike traditional bread, this recipe requires no kneading, rising, or complicated techniques. The ingredients are soaked to enhance digestion and nutrient absorption, making it an excellent choice for a healthy lifestyle. Plus, it makes the best toast ever—crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside, and loaded with flavor.


Why You’ll Love This Life-Changing Bread

  • Easy to Make – No kneading or special equipment needed.
  • Nutrient-Dense – Packed with fiber, healthy fats, and plant-based protein.
  • Gut-Friendly – Soaking improves digestion and absorption.
  • Gluten-Free & Vegan – Great for those with dietary restrictions.
  • Deliciously Satisfying – The perfect base for toast, spreads, and toppings.

Ingredients (Makes 1 Loaf)

  • 1 cup (135g) sunflower seeds
  • ½ cup (90g) flaxseeds
  • ½ cup (65g) hazelnuts or almonds
  • 1½ cups (145g) rolled oats
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 4 tablespoons psyllium seed husks (use 3 tablespoons if using psyllium husk powder)
  • 1 teaspoon fine sea salt (add ½ teaspoon more if using coarse salt)
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup (or a pinch of stevia for a sugar-free option)
  • 3 tablespoons melted coconut oil or ghee
  • 1½ cups (350ml) water

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Mix the Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine all dry ingredients and stir well.

Step 2: Add Wet Ingredients

In a separate bowl or measuring cup, whisk together maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and water. Pour this into the dry mixture and stir until fully combined. The dough should be thick and sticky. If it’s too dry, add a teaspoon or two of water.

Step 3: Let It Rest

Transfer the mixture into a lined loaf pan, smoothing out the top with the back of a spoon. Let it sit for at least 2 hours or even overnight. The dough should hold its shape when you pull the edges of the pan away.

Step 4: Bake the Bread

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the loaf pan on the middle rack and bake for 20 minutes.

Step 5: Remove & Continue Baking

Carefully remove the bread from the pan and place it directly onto the oven rack or a baking tray. Bake for an additional 30-40 minutes until the loaf sounds hollow when tapped.

Step 6: Cool & Enjoy

Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing. This step is crucial to prevent it from crumbling.


Storage & Freezing Tips

  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
  • For longer storage, slice into thick pieces, wrap individually, and freeze. Simply pop a slice in the toaster when ready to eat.

How to Enjoy Life-Changing Bread

  • Toasted with avocado & sea salt – A perfect savory snack.
  • Topped with nut butter & banana – A nutritious energy boost.
  • Drizzled with honey & cinnamon – A deliciously sweet treat.
  • With hummus & roasted veggies – A satisfying plant-based meal.
