In a large mixing bowl, combine chia seeds, flaxseeds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, hemp seeds, rolled oats, almond flour, psyllium husk powder, and salt. Mix thoroughly.
In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together warm water, maple syrup, and olive oil.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir well to ensure everything is evenly combined. The mixture will thicken as it sits due to the psyllium husk and chia seeds absorbing the liquid.
Let the mixture rest for 10-15 minutes. It should form a dense, sticky dough.
Grease a standard loaf pan or line it with parchment paper. Transfer the dough into the loaf pan and press it down firmly to ensure it is evenly packed.
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and allow it to fully heat up.
Place the loaf pan in the middle rack of the oven and bake for 50-60 minutes. The loaf should be firm and golden brown on the outside.
Remove the pan from the oven and let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Carefully remove the loaf from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve plain or toasted. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
