  1. Make the milk kefir according to the pack instructions.

  3. Transfer to an oiled bowl, cover with cling film and leave in a warm place for 24 hours.
  4. Shape the risen dough into a 20cm circle on the baking sheet. Cut a cross on top and sprinkle over the remaining Munchy Seeds. Cover with cling film and leave in a warm place to rise for 2-3 hours.
  5. Preheat the oven to 180°C/Gas 4. Bake for 1-1¼ hours or until the loaf is golden brown and sounds hollow when the base is tapped. If the seeds look like they are starting to burn, cover the top loosely with foil.
  6. Leave to cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then place on a wire rack to cool completely.
