Author Notes
I find most breads make me bloated and sluggish, bar a few exceptions, but there is nothing better than filling your house with the smell of freshly baked bread and spreading some chia jam on the first warm slice out of the oven. I wanted to fill my loaf with the best Omega-3 packed seeds and oil to give me a super immune boost and anti-inflammatory benefits. The mixture of the wholemeal and plain flour makes a really lightweight loaf that isn’t tough to digest, and great as bread as well as toast. —The All Natural Cure
