Easy Rustic Lupin & Seed Protein Bread
Easy No knead - 1 small loaf · 14 slices · High in protein
Ingredients
- 150 g lupin flour 1½ cups
- 50 g almond meal 1/2 cup
- 70 g sunflower seeds 1/2 Cup
- 35 g pepitas 1/4 Cup
- 2 tbsp chia seeds 24g
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 5 large eggs
- 125 g Greek yoghurt 1/2 Cup
- 60 ml olive oil 1/4 Cup
- 125 ml water 1/2 Cup
Instructions
- Preheat oven 180°C (160°C fan).
- Line a small loaf tin (20 cm × 10 cm × 7 cm (length × width × height) with baking paper.
- This size ensures the loaf isn’t too thick, so it cooks evenly and keeps a fluffy texture.
Method
- In a large bowl, combine lupin flour, almond meal, sunflower seeds, pepitas, chia seeds, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, or jug, whisk eggs, yoghurt, olive oil, and water until smooth.
- Pour into dry mixture and stir until a thick, uniform batter forms.
- Spoon into prepared tin, smoothing the top. Sprinkle extra seeds if desired.
- Bake 45–50 mins, or until golden and firm in the centre.
- Let cool in tin 10 mins, then transfer to a wire rack. Slice when completely cooled for best texture.
Notes
Tips for maximum fluffiness:
• Whisk the eggs a little before adding to the wet mixture — this incorporates air.
• Don’t over-pack the seeds; you want them for crunch but not to weigh the loaf down. Baking tips:
• Always test with a skewer in the centre — it should come out mostly clean (a few crumbs are okay).
• Let the bread cool completely before slicing; this prevents it from being gummy.
• If your oven has hot spots, consider rotating the tin halfway through baking.
