Ingredients
- 2 cups (260g) whole wheat flour
- 2 tbsp roasted sunflower seeds
- 2 tbsp flax seeds
- 2 tbsp hemp seeds
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda

- 2 tbsp rolled oats
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400F and grease a 9×5″ loaf pan.

- In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, buttermilk, molasses, and melted butter.
