Why You’ll Love This Recipe
Ingredients
See recipe card for quantities.
- Plain Skyr Yogurt: Creates a moist and fluffy texture while adding a protein boost. I recommend plain Skyr yogurt from Painterland Sisters or Siggi’s. The recipe also works with quark cheese, but do not use Greek yogurt, as it has a higher moisture content and may alter the texture.
- Rolled Oats: Provide fiber and a mild, nutty flavor. I blend them in my stand mixer until they turn into fine oat flour for the perfect bread texture. The recipe also works with store-bought oat flour, but the homemade version is a cheaper alternative.
- Eggs: Help bind the ingredients together and add extra protein.
- Baking powder: Helps the bread rise without the need of yeast.
- Salt: Enhances the overall flavor.
Visual Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together Skyr yogurt and eggs until smooth.
- Blend the oats in a high-speed blender until you get a fine flour.
- In a separate bowl, combine the oat flour, seeds, baking powder, and salt. → Since the dough is quite thick, it’s important to mix these dry ingredients separately first to ensure even distribution.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir well.
- Transfer the dough to a 9-inch loaf pan lined with parchment paper, smooth out the top using a silicon spatula or spoon, and sprinkle with oats (or seeds) for decoration.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes. Remove from the oven, lift the bread out using the parchment paper, and let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.

This came out really well! I think I would use an 8×4 pan to get more height out of the bread. This toasts very nicely and is perfect for any spread, salad (like tuna or chicken) and avocado toast! I sliced it and put it in the freezer to stay fresh
Happy to hear Nina! 🙌❤️
