No-Knead Seed Bread

No-Knead Seed Bread (Bowl Bread)

 Ingredients

• 3 cups (375 g) all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon sugar or honey
• 1 teaspoon instant yeast
• 1 1/4 cups (300 ml) warm water
• 3–4 tablespoons mixed seeds (sunflower, flax, sesame, etc.)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil (optional)

 Instructions

1. Mix the dough
   In a bowl, combine flour, salt, sugar, yeast, and seeds. Add warm water and mix with a spoon until you get a sticky dough (like in the image).
2. First rise
   Cover and let it rest for 1–2 hours (or until doubled in size).
3. Prepare the bowl
   Grease a small oven-safe glass bowl or ramekin. Sprinkle extra seeds at the bottom and sides.
4. Shape & second rise
   Transfer the dough into the bowl (no kneading needed). Smooth the top and add more seeds. Let it rise another 30–45 minutes.
5. Bake
   Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 30–40 minutes until golden brown on top.
6. Cool & slice
   Let it cool slightly, then remove from the bowl and slice like shown.

 Tips

• For extra crunch: brush the top with a little water before baking and add more seeds.
• You can replace part of the flour with whole wheat for a healthier version.
• If you want a crispier crust, bake 5–10 minutes longer outside the bowl at the end.
