Celery Free Seeded Whole Grain Loaf

This hearty, golden loaf is packed with sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, chia, and flaxseed, giving every slice a satisfying crunch and a genuinely nutty depth of flavor. A touch of turmeric and black pepper in the batter adds warmth without being overpowering, while unsweetened applesauce and olive oil keep the crumb moist and tender. The whole thing comes together in one bowl without any yeast, proofing, or complicated technique — just mix, rest, and bake. Because the ingredient list is completely straightforward, there's no need to scan labels for hidden additives or worry about cross-contact from processed foods that sometimes sneak in unexpected extras. The batter thickens as the chia and flaxseed absorb moisture during that short rest, so don't skip it — it's what gives the loaf its sturdy, sliceable texture. Once it comes out of the oven with a deep golden crust and optional seed topping pressed into the surface, it looks genuinely impressive for something this easy. Let it cool fully before slicing and it holds together beautifully for toast, open-faced sandwiches, or just eaten warm with a drizzle of olive oil.
