You can use lavender seeds – sparingly is best. I blitzed them for a moment in a chopper first (though it didn’t do much). I added about 1-2 teaspoons’-worth. When I asked my husband to guess the mystery ingredient he suggested washing-up liquid, but he did then ask for a second slice, so he can’t have found it offensive!

Oh, and I cut the sugar by about half – this amount seemed way too much to me and it was fine as I did it.

Lavender extract is made like vanilla extract – vodka and lavender, and steep for a couple of weeks in it. I went into our natural food grocer and the wellness department said absolutely do NOT use lavender essential oil instead of extract. Some e-oils are okay to use in foods, some are not, this one he said is not unfortunately. I did google it and see that Sur La Table stores sell it and you can get it online via Amazon and Sur La Table as well.

In reply to Donna R Parks. I know you can get it at a specialty store or even a health store! :)

Yum! It can be so easy to get in a rut of not meeting neighbors. Our neighbors are all spread out since most are on at least 1 acre, and many work, or we just don’t see them that often. This bread sounds good. Not sure my hubby would like it, but I think I would.
