Introduction & Ingredients
Forget the kneading, the rising time, and the messy flour-covered counters. This 3-Ingredient Seeded Jar Bread is a game-changer for healthy meal prep. By using nutrient-dense seeds instead of white flour, you get a bread that is high in fiber, rich in healthy fats, and won’t cause a blood sugar spike.Bread
Since we are baking this directly in a glass jar, it’s perfectly portioned and stays incredibly moist. It’s the ultimate “lazy” bread for busy mornings.
What You’ll Need
To keep this recipe as simple as possible, we are sticking to three core base ingredients. You can customize the seeds based on what you have in your pantry.
2 cups Mixed Seeds: A blend of sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds (pepitas), flaxseeds, and chia seeds works best.
3 Large Eggs: These act as the binder and provide the “lift” since we aren’t using yeast.Baking Ingredients Kit
1/2 cup Greek Yogurt or Cottage Cheese: This provides moisture and structure. (For a dairy-free version, use a thick almond yogurt).
Optional: A pinch of sea salt and 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda for extra fluffiness.

The beauty of this recipe is that it takes about one minute of active prep time.
Step 1: Prep the Seeds
If you prefer a smoother texture, you can pulse half of your seed mix in a blender for 5 seconds to create a “seed flour.” However, for the rustic look seen in the photo, keep the seeds whole.
Step 2: The Mix
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk your eggs and yogurt (or cottage cheese) until smooth. Fold in your seeds and the optional pinch of salt. Stir until every seed is well-coated. The mixture should look like a thick, wet paste—not runny, but not a solid dough.Bread
Step 3: Jar Preparation
Grease two wide-mouth, heat-safe glass jars (like Weck jars or Mason jars) with a little olive oil or avocado oil. Spoon the mixture into the jars, filling them about 3/4 of the way full. This leaves room for the bread to expand as it bakes.

While the headline says “in a minute,” that refers to your prep work! The oven does the rest of the heavy lifting.
