I don’t necessarily follow any sort of diet, i.e. gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, etc. However, if I can manage to make something that I really enjoy and it happens to be so, I’m all for it. I like the challenge of finding new ways to take old recipes and attempt to make them taste the same as if they contained one or all of the above. I do try to limit the amount of processed foods and extra sugar floating around everywhere. I try to focus on filling my body with healthy, nutritious, organic food for the most part but don’t refrain from the indulgence of treats. Because I don’t believe in that.
All that being said, bread is big thing I’m working on bettering. I don’t know if it’s just me, but I find it hard to have just eggs for breakfast without some sort of bread on the side. It doesn’t seem the same. And I love a fresh loaf of white bread as much as the next person but I don’t think it constitutes as a great thing to have everyday. I came across Sarah B’s recipe for a fabulous bread recipe and I’ve been making it ever since. It’s my new go-to bread and the one I have with my breakfast eggs.
I made mine with pumpkin seeds, walnuts, hazelnuts, and sunflower seeds. And along with the psyllium husks I added a tablespoon of Maca powder. First few times I made it, as I was without a silicon pan, I spent intervals of time scraping off the parchment until I could get it back in the oven for its second bake. A silicon pan does work best, from my experience. And it’s true what she says- it really does make the best toast ever.
