Our friends have been visiting their family in Slovakia for the past 3 months.  How we have missed them!  Here is a version of the sandwich bread, Ivana-style.  Ivana sent me the beautiful photos below this weekend of her visit in Slovakia and Prague.  🙂  Enjoy!

-in mixer combine:

• 2 tbs olive oil
• 1 1/2 c almond milk warmed

• 3 c kamut berries
• 1/2 c spelt berries
• 1/2 c flax seeds (all ground together)
• 1/2 tsp dried basil
• 1/2 tsp carraway seeds {I’m not sure but I may have put in cumin by mistake…:)}
• 4 tsp raw pumpkin seeds
• 2 tsp sesame seeds
• 2 tsp flax seeds

-allow dough to rest 10 minutes
-knead for 6-10 minutes or until dough is elastic and smooth
-cut in half and place in coconut oil greased pans
-cover and let rise 30-35 minutes or until dough has just passed the tops of the pan
-bake at 375 degrees for 35 minutes
-remove from pans and allow to cool on rack

Trying to decided which I like best.  I do love a good herby-seedy loaf!
