Tips & Notes
- •The seed mix adds both nutrition and structure — the seeds help hold the bread together and add satisfying crunch.
- •Ground flaxseed acts as a natural binder, adding omega-3 fats while helping with bread structure.
- •Toast the seeds lightly in a dry pan before adding for an even nuttier, deeper flavor.
- •This bread slices best when completely cool. For thin deli-style slices, refrigerate overnight before cutting.
Recipe Variations
- →Seeded Sandwich Bread: Omit the millet and increase each seed type for an extra-seeded version.
- →Chia Multigrain: Replace the ground flaxseed with chia seeds for a different nutritional profile.
