When it comes to bread, supermarkets and bakeries offer a variety of bread, from wholemeal, white, soft, crusty, Italian, Vietnamese, Turkish, 4 seeds, 8 seeds, toast, Vienna, to those containing sultanas or olives. They all come plain, or in a plastic bag, some in a cellophane bag, and some in fancy packaging. And none of them are cheap. So, we offer you the idea to be creative – spending as much as ½ hour all together and making your own bread. So be creative, add whatever you want to your bread and be proud that you made it yourself. All you need to buy is a bread pan, if you want a loaf shape, if not – feel free to use any other baking dish – everything is good enough. Try this chia sesame seed no knead bread recipe.
