Beet, Caraway, and Goat Cheese Bread

I found this recipe at the bottom of a post about beets by Ottolenghi in the Guardian. This was super fun to make! I made it with my dad one weekend :) What was most fun about it was the striking, bright color produced by the beets! The taste was unlike anything we'd ever tried. Interesting in a good way. The recipe was pretty easy, but the thing that took the longest was converting the European units into something we could use. I've converted and re-written the ingredient list below for us Americans. Enjoy!

Ingredients

~ 1/4 cup rolled oats

~ 2 tsp thyme leaves, finely chopped

~ 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds

~ 2 tsp caraway seeds

~ 2 tsp nigella seeds (we couldn't find any, so I used black sesame seeds which worked just fine)

~ 1/2 cup plain flour

~ 1/2 cup wholemeal four (we used white wheat)

~ 2 tsp baking powder

~ 1/4 tsp baking soda

~ salt

~ 2 raw beetroots, peeled and finely grated

~ 2 large eggs

~ 1/3 cup sunflower oil (we used avocado oil)

~ 3/4 cup sour cream

~ 1 tbsp honey

~ 1/8 cup parmesan

~ 1/2 cup good goat cheese, roughly broken into 2cm pieces
