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!
