Healthy and Quick Lingonberry Loaf
I just love to bake no-yeast breads as it's so uncomplicated. You don't even have to kneed the bread. You basically just add all ingredients in a bowl, combine, spoon it into the loaf tin and bake. Who said it was difficult and time consuming to make homemade healthy bread? The dark corn syrup gives the bread a nice robust sweet flavour as well as making the bread darker in colour. Lingonberries adds a sweet and sour flavour and the sunflower seeds adds crunchiness. Eat with your favourite toppings as cream cheese, ham, tomato and cucumber.
Lingonberry Loaf
3 dl wheat flour (300ml)
1 dl porridge oats (100ml)
2 1/2 dl rye flour (250ml)
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
2 tsp bicarbonate
1 tbsp bread spices (1/3 anise, 1/3 fennel, 1/3 caraway)
1 dl lingonberries (or lingonberry jam) (100ml)
1 dl dark corn syrup (100ml)
3 dl yogurt (300ml)
Preheat the oven at 150 degrees. Combine all ingredients in a bowl. You don't have to kneed the dough, just combine. Grease or place grease-proof paper in a 1 1/2 litre loaf tin. Spoon the sticky dough into the loaf tin. Bake at the bottom of your oven for about 50-60 minutes or until a stick comes out clean. Let it cool before slicing.
Enjoy!

Looks wonderful! I never heard of lingonberries before. What are they?
ReplyDeleteLingonberries are very popular in Scandinavia. i googled it and apparently they are called Mountain Cranberries USA. You can buy lingonberry jam at IKEA. The flavour is more sour than sweet.
DeleteI've never heard of lingonberry before :) looks so great though!
ReplyDeleteI don't think Lingonberries are ver well known outside of Scandinavia:-) But you can buy Lingonberry jam at IKEA. The flavour is more sour than sweet and great in breads like this and in Sweden we eat it in many of our traditional foods.
DeleteWhat a beautiful loaf...I just love the color! I don't think that I've ever had lingonberries...I'm going to have to search some out! Thanks so much for adding this to the BYOB bread basket this month =)
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm happy to participate in your lovely linky party:-)
DeleteThis looks healthy and delicious! I wish we could get fresh lingonberries locally but the best I could do is probably the jam available from
ReplyDeleteIkea!

DeleteIt is cooler here today and your sandwich slices look so flavorful and hearty, just what I need. I love the rich color of your loaf and just imagine the flavor. Thank you for sharing this with BYOB.

ReplyDeleteI've never baked with lingonberries but this looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteGoodness, I LOVE no yeast bread too, I get so impatient waiting for the dough when I can just mix everything together and bake. AND - they are always soo tasty! Love the pics, as always <3

Lovely recipe, this loaf looks just delicious! I think I will have a go with it, lingonberries are in season over here in Finland as well, and I was googling for inspiration. :) Btw, I think that sunflowerseeds are missing in the recipe...
