This recipe has been sitting in the folder of recipes to try for over 18 months – so very sad! I tore it out of the Food and Home magazine and if I have it correct, (as I only tore out the section with the recipe) it seems credit needs to go to The Cake the Budda Ate: More Quiet Food. This loaf is full of wonderful flavour and texture and paired beautifully with a lasagne, beetroot and green salad dinner I made for when my brother and his family arrived on holiday. I will definitely be keeping an assortment of seeds on hand to make this regularly.
Seeded Loaf
Ingredients
4 cups nutty wheat flour
5ml bicarbonate of soda
5ml baking powder
5ml salt
25ml brown sugar
500ml plain yoghurt – I used full cream Greek yoghurt
50ml sunflower oil
50ml milk
1 cup mixed seeds (sesame, sunflower, pumpkin, poppy) – I never used poppy as I never had any
Sesame seeds to garnish
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180°C and grease a loaf tin.
- Sift the dry ingredients.
- Stir in the sugar.
- Mix the yoghurt, oil and milk. Combine with the dry mixture and mix thoroughly.
- Stir in the mixed seeds.
- Spoon into the loaf tin. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and bake for 45 minutes.
- Switch off the oven and leave for a further 15 minutes.

I’ve never baked a loaf with so many seeds, Mandy, but I’m more than willing to try. I especially like that there’s so little sugar to be used. I bet it’s delicious when toasted and served with a bit of honey.

This is a loaf that will be made for many years to come in our home John, it is delicious! I would love to hear how you enjoy it if you make it. I have just bought more seed to make it again soon. Have a lovely day.

That’s a gorgeous seeded quick bread. Now I am really curious about ‘the Cake the Budda Ate…’…Didn’t realize budda needed to eat at all

This looks like such a versatile, healthy and filling loaf. As John said, I can imagine how good it would be toasted, and I’ll bet it would make a mean vegetarian sandwich, too!

I am undecided which I prefer Betsy, toasted or un-toasted, guess I will just have to keep making it until I decide.
Have a super day.

What an interesting cake. I don’t think I’ve ever seen one with so many seeds. Mr. N and Mike would LOVE this. They both are seed fanatics.

Okay, you’ve sold me on this one & it’s being added to MY growing file of ‘must try’ recipes. I love all of the texture going on with this loaf and it looks fine as a meal in itself. Don’t laugh – my husband really could sit down & eat a loaf of bread for dinner.

Good to know I am not the only one with the ever growing “must try” file Diane. If your hubby is a bread loving man, this loaf will definitely tickle his taste buds. Have a super weekend.

Looks yum, how long does it keep for?
By: moi du toi photography on February 5, 2013

Is super yum but like most home baked breads they only stay “fresh” for a day but makes for fabulous toast for a couple more days. I shall make you a loaf when we come and visit.
xo Shew just a few more sleeps before you settle into your custard cottage.
