Ingredients

  • 255 g (9 oz) pumpkin seeds

  • 475 ml (16.2 fl oz) oat milk works well but you can use any plant milk (it's important to use oat milk that is certified gluten-free. it can sometimes be contaminated with gluten during processing)

  • 100 g (3.5 oz) porridge oats (certified gluten-free to avoid cross-contamination)

  • 85 g (3 oz) sunflower seeds

  • 1 tablespoon dried rosemary and thyme

  • 100 g (3.5 oz) almonds

  • 200 g (7 oz) buckwheat flour (certified gluten-free to avoid cross-contamination)

  • 3 tablespoons ground flaxseeds

  • 3 tablespoons chia seeds

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, plus extra for greasing

  • 1 tablespoon black sesame seeds

  • A large pinch of salt

Method

  • Begin by placing the almonds, oats, and two-thirds of the pumpkin seeds into a food processor. Blend for a couple of minutes until they form a smooth flour.

  • Transfer this flour into a bowl. Add the remaining pumpkin seeds, buckwheat flour, sunflower seeds, chia seeds, flaxseeds, dried rosemary, black sesame seeds, and a pinch of salt. Mix well to combine.

  • Slowly pour in the oat milk and a tablespoon of olive oil, stirring continuously until the mixture is well combined.

  • Allow the mixture to sit for 30 to 60 minutes to thicken. In the meantime, preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F), fan setting.

  • Once the mixture has thickened and is firm (ensure it’s not even slightly runny), grease a loaf tin with some olive oil or line it with baking parchment. Pour the mixture into the tin, pressing it down firmly with a spoon or spatula.

  • Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until the top starts to brown and a knife comes out clean from the centre. Enjoy!
