Viking bread recipe

You asked me, so here it is: The real Viking bread recipe, not the modified, adapted and modernized version.

This recipe comes from a research historian specializing in Viking culture. Be careful, there are different Viking bread recipes because of different periods in time: with butter, bacon, flax seeds, etc.

The result is quite firm with a crust that holds together well. Big success at home where the whole family threw themselves on it!

This recipe is not Keto Smart, Detox, or Booster compatible. On the other hand, it is compatible in Balance and a smaller amount in Attack.
