Recipe information

  • Yield

    makes one 8-inch loaf

Ingredients

Cooking spray
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup whole-wheat flour
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped
3/4 cup hulled sunflower seeds, toasted, plus 3 tablespoons for topping
1/2 cup steel-cut oats
1/2 cup oat or rice bran
1 1/4 cups low-fat (1 percent) milk
1 cup plain low-fat yogurt

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Coat an 8 × 4-inch loaf pan with cooking spray. Into a large bowl, sift together the flours, salt, cream of tartar, baking soda, and baking powder. Stir in the nuts, sunflower seeds, oats, and bran. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and yogurt, then stir into the flour mixture just until combined.

    Step 2

    Spoon the batter into the prepared pan, and smooth the top with the back of the spoon. Sprinkle the remaining 3 tablespoons sunflower seeds evenly over the top.

    Step 3

    Bake until golden on top and pulling away from the pan, about 1 hour 10 minutes. Remove from the oven; immediately invert onto a wire rack to remove the pan. Reinvert; let cool completely before slicing.
