High-Fiber Basil Seed Barley Bread

A soft, rustic loaf made with simple ingredients—no yeast or kneading required.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups barley flour

  • 1/4 cup Zen Basil Seeds

  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder

  • 1/2 tsp baking soda

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt

  • 1 tbsp honey

  • 2 1/2 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 large egg

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease or line an 8.5 x 4.5-inch loaf pan.

  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the barley flour, Zen Basil Seeds, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

  3. Add the Greek yogurt, honey, olive oil, and egg. Stir until just combined. Do not overmix.

  4. Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

  5. Bake for 47–50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

  6. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
