Step 1
In a measuring cup, whisk together the chia seeds and 1 cup of water. Set aside for 20 minutes until jelly.
Step 2
Preheat your oven to 355˚F (180˚C). Lightly grease a small 8x3-inch loaf pan and line with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on both sides (*see photo above). (Note: If using a wider loaf pan your bread will be flatter).
Step 3
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the buckwheat flour, baking powder, and salt. Then add the remaining ⅔ cup of water, canola oil, and gel-like chia seed mixture. Mix until just combined and please do not overmix or your bread won't rise very well!
Step 4
Spoon the sticky dough into your prepared loaf pan, smoothing out evenly. Sprinkle with sunflower seeds as desired. Bake for about 1 hour 10 minutes, or until a skewer comes out clean.
Step 5
Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely. Then use the parchment overhang to lift the loaf out of the pan.
Step 6
Slice and enjoy!
