Nutritious and Delicious Nut Loaf
This nut loaf is delicious and nutritious! It is gluten free, high in protein, healthy fats, prebiotic fibre, vitamins and minerals. It is also quick and easy to make. You can replace the almonds and sunflower seeds with any nuts or seeds of your choice.
1 cup almond meal
1 cup raw sunflower seeds
1/2 cup chopped almonds
1/2 cup flax seeds
1/2 cup chia seeds
1/4 cup psyllium husk powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup olive oil
1.5 cups water
Mix the dry ingredients well in a silicone loaf tin, then add the oil and water mix. Stir well until combined and allow to sit on the bench or in the fridge for at least 5 minutes (up to 24 hours is also OK). It is ready to go in the oven when the soft sides of the loaf tin can be pulled away from the loaf.
Bake for 30 minutes at 175C then remove from the loaf tin and place directly on a wire rack over a baking tray. Return to the oven for another 30 minutes. Allow to cool slightly before slicing. Can be stored whole in an airtight container for up to one week or slice and store in the freezer.
