Ingredients

  • 350 g wheat flour
  • 150 g spelt flour
  • 42 g fresh yeast (1 cube)
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 2 tsp salt
  • a pinch ground cardamom
  • 70 g pistachios (coarsely chopped)
  • 30 g pumpkin seeds (coarsely chopped)
  • 2 tbsp walnut oil
  • flour (for the work surface)
  • oil (for the loaf pan)

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Whisk the yeast with 250 ml lukewarm water and sugar until smooth. In a bowl, combine flour, salt, cardamom, and oil; pour in the dissolved yeast and knead with an electric hand mixer’s dough hooks into a smooth dough, adding more flour or water if needed. Finally fold in the nuts. Cover and let rise in a warm place for about 45 minutes.

  2. 2.

    Oil the loaf pan. Knead the dough on a floured surface, shape it into a long loaf, and place it in the pan. Cover and allow to rise again for 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place a heatproof bowl of hot water at the bottom of the oven. Brush the top of the dough with water and bake in the middle rack for about 50-60 minutes. Remove from the oven, transfer to a plate, and brush with water again.
