Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 cups rolled oats Use certified gluten-free oats for a gluten-free option.
  • 1/2 cup chia seeds Soak to create a gel-like consistency.
  • 2 cups water Let chia seeds absorb this for best texture.
  • 1 teaspoon salt Adjust to taste.
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder For leavening.
  • Optional seeds for topping Choose according to preference.

Method
 

Preparation and Baking
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Get that warmth going!
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats and water. Let them sit for about 15 minutes to soften.
  3. Soak the chia seeds in a separate bowl for about 10 minutes until they form a gel-like consistency.
  4. Stir the chia gel, salt, and baking powder into the oats until it’s well mixed.
  5. If you’re feeling fancy, sprinkle some optional seeds on top for extra crunch!
  6. Pour the mixture into a greased loaf pan. Smooth out the top for a nice finish.
  7. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.

Notes

Store Oat and Chia Bread in an airtight container for about 3-5 days in the fridge. Slice and freeze for later use. Experiment with toppings like sunflower seeds or herbs for different flavors.
