Healthy Recipes

Mushroom bread 

Ingredients:

  • 1 small onion, finely chopped

  • 250g mushrooms, peeled and finely diced

  • 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds

  • 1 1/2 cups ground sunflower seeds

  • 2 whole eggs

  • Black pepper and sea salt 

  • 1-2 tablespoons of healthy oil of your choice

 

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 180˚C.

  2. Heat the oil in a frying pan. Add the chopped onion and sauté over medium heat for a minute or two then add the mushrooms and some seasoning. Continue to fry until the mushrooms are light brown.

  3. Put the ground sunflower and pumpkin seeds into a mixing bowl. Add the onion & mushroom mixture, eggs, salt and pepper to taste. Mix until well combined. Add a little oil to the mixture if it seems too dry (it will depend on the size of the eggs you use).

  4. Lightly grease a baking tray.

  5. Wet your hands in clean water so the mix does not stick to your hands. Scoop the mix from the bowl with your hands and put it in the middle of the greased tray. Spread mixture evenly over the tray into the desired shape and size.

  6. For crackers make a thinner layer on the baking tray.
