Submitted by peachy_pie

"This is a deliciously thick and flavoursome bread - and vegan, lactose and egg free to boot! This makes the BEST ploughman's lunch - slice thickly and pile on a plate with sliced cold meats, cheese, sliced apple or pear and some chutney."

DH loved it, quite a different flavour and a nice change. It is nice alone and as a sandwich, he made a pastrami sandwich, with lettuce etc., and said it was heavan. It has a lovely crunchy crust and a nice soft crumb. I did have to bake it about 15 minutes longer than stated. I used herbs de provence, half, cumin, a quarter and coriander a quarter, for my herbs and olive oil. I probably will make it again, thanks for posting.
