Notes

This is a dense loaf – nutrient-rich and grain-free all at once, and a little goes a long way. I suggest slicing it into thin pieces and freezing what you won’t eat immediately, and when you wish, take a few slices from the freezer and toast them. I loved this bread slathered with cream cheese and topped with slices of salame. But you can eat it however you wish. This is the type of recipe I can imagine my mum printing and pinning on the kitchen wall. And you know what? I can imagine you’ll do that too.
