I’m glad it worked out for you, Catherine! Your fieldwork sounds interesting!

well, I used sprouted and dehydrated seeds, chia egg instead of irish moss, added hazelnuts and dried figs! It reminds me of Première Moisson’«tourte biologique» but even tastier ;)

It’s so wholesome and nutritive, I will bring it for my fieldwork , deep into the woods of northern Québec, to sustain my little vegan self stuck into hunter’s paradise!

Thanks, Catherine! I haven’t tried any substitutions for the Irish moss, but 2 flax eggs might work best (2 tbsp ground flax whisked with 1/4 cup water). The grains and seeds should ideally be sprouted and dehydrated. Or if you’re in a rush, you can use them raw without sprouting them. Either way, they should be dry when grinding into flour. Hope you enjoy the recipe!

hi Nicole, first I want to tell you I like your blog!
I will definitely give this bread a try, but I Wonder by which ingredient I could substitute the irish moss; is it supposed to replace eggs? Maybe some agar agar dilute in 1/4 cup of water? What do you think? Should the sprouted grains be dried or dehydrated so I can grind them into flour, or have grind them while wet into a paste?
Thanks!

I believe it took about 8 hours for a small half loaf. You’ll need to adjust the time depending on the size and shape of your own.

How long did you leave it in the dehydrator when you prepared it that way?

Tricky question. The psyllium husks help give the bread volume, so I would suggest chia seeds as a possible substitution (add them to the liquid mixture and let sit for a few minutes). I can’t promise it will work though, since I haven’t tried it. Good luck!

That looks HEAVENLY! Didn’t expect a banana loaf would have looked so gourmet and good!
Have a great weekend!

Oh MAN, does this bread look absolutely scrumptious! I would love to make it, but never have any psyllium husks on hand. Do you have a possible substitution?
