Whisk the dry ingredients thoroughly till there are no lumps of flour or seeds.
Whisk the eggs till light and fluffy.
Add the kefir/buttermilk/yoghurt to the beaten eggs.
Whisk gently to combine.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry.
Stir till just combined and smooth.
The mixture will be quite soft and moist, almost the consistency of thick pancake batter.
Allow the dry ingredients to absorb the moisture while you prepare the baking pan.
Grease a loaf pan well.
You can also line the pan with parchment paper which makes it easier to remove the loaf when baked.
Fill the bread pan with the batter.
Sprinkle some sesame/sunflower/poppy/caraway seeds on top of the loaf.
Bake @ 180* C for 50 minutes to 1 hour.
When the loaf browns and sounds hollow when tapped, you’ll know it’s done.
Remove the loaf from the oven, allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
If left in the hot pan too long, the moisture will soften the bottom of the loaf.
After 10 minutes, remove from pan and allow to cool completely on a wire rack.
Enjoy slathered with butter and homemade milk kefir cheese.
This bread is also a delicious accompaniment to any soup as well as breakfast of bacon and eggs.

When the loaf was completely cooled, I sliced it thinly, made little parcels of 4 slices each wrapped in cling film.  When the loaf was completely cooled, I sliced it thinly, made little parcels of 4 slices each wrapped in cling film.

The parcels froze well. When we defrosted them, they didn’t even need to be toasted. They remained soft and fresh.  The parcels froze well. When we defrosted them, they didn’t even need to be toasted. They remained soft and fresh.

I am partial to the flavour caraway seeds impart to bread. So, I like to add 1/4 tsp to the mixture as well as a little sprinkling on top of the loaf.  I am partial to the flavour caraway seeds impart to bread.

I’ve made this bread twice in my imarflex Turbo Broiler. Today I baked 2 little loaves using parchment paper loaf shapes.  I’ve made this bread twice in my imarflex Turbo Broiler. Today I baked 2 little loaves using parchment paper loaf shapes.

Although, this time, we couldn’t wait to tuck in, we cut 4 slices to have with our fried bacon, eggs and tomato. Yummy!  Although, this time, we couldn’t wait to tuck in, we cut 4 slices to have with our fried bacon, eggs and tomato. Yummy!
