Vegan Sunflower Bread recipe with step wise pictorial and video method.

A bread stuffed with seasoned potatoes and shaped into sunflower is something which has the full tendency, not just to attract the kids but adults as well.

Although you can’t calculate this recipe as an easy attempt but at the same time this is not too difficult to make. Rather we would call it a fun recipe, which though asked for time and labour, but the end result was worth.

And if talking about the ingredients, they are very basic and regular.

However there are certain changes which you can do and they are :

1. Replace whole wheat flour with all purpose flour or use both in the ratio of 50:50.

2. Here we have done of stuffing of potatoes. You can do any stuffing of your choice.

3. The use of black sesame seeds in this recipe are that they are only for giving sunflower effect. In place of black sesame seeds, you can use anything which is black in colour, so can give sunflower effect. So if don’t have black sesame seeds, sprinkle oregano or mix herbs in the middle bump.
