Swedish Rye and Wholegrain Seed Bread

Ingredients

  • 125ml (½ cup) Greek yoghurt (see note 1)
  • 100ml (¼ cup + 3 tbsp) milk
  • 50ml (3 tbs + 1 tsp) bread or dark syrup (see note 2)
  • 30g (¼ cup) graham flour
  • 30g (¼ cup) cracked rye
  • 30g (¼ cup) oats
  • 75g (½ cup + 1 tbsp) rye flour
  • 60g (½ cup) wholegrain spelt flour (see note 3)
  • 30g (¼ cup) bread flour
  • 25g (2½ tbsp) linseeds (see note 4)
  • 25g (2½ tbsp) sunflower seeds kernels (see note 4)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon bread spice (see note 5)
  • 25g (3½ tbsp) chopped walnuts (see note 6)
  • 25g (2½ tbsp) raisins

Instructions

  • Pre-heat the oven to 200℃ (400℉). Line a regular loaf pan with baking paper.
  • Mix the Greek yoghurt, milk and syrup together in a large bowl.
  • Add the remaining ingredients to the wet and stir until combined.
  • Pour into the prepared tin and smooth over with a knife to roughly flatten the top. Sprinkle some seeds over the top.
  • Bake in the oven for around 40-45 minutes. Allow to cool in the pan for a while, then turn out onto a rack. Enjoy!

Notes

I have converted metric measurements (grams and ml) to imperial (cups and ounces) using online converters, so accuracy cannot be totally guaranteed.
  1. If you do have access to filmjölk, use 225ml (1 cup) and do not add any milk or Greek yoghurt. Further substitution ideas can be found here
  2. If this is not available, use any dark syrup (such as molasses or treacle) would work well. See here for other substitutions.
  3. You can substitute regular wholegrain flour for wholegrain spelt. Read here for more help with subbing flours.
  4. You can use any seeds you like - pumpkin and poppy seeds also work well.
  5. Bread spice is a special blend of spices to add to bread. Please read for more information.
  6. Walnuts are great in this recipe, but you can omit them, or use any other kind of nut.
