A slightly sweet enriched bread that is flavored with honey and citrus peel and loaded with roasted sunflower seeds. It features a dense, but soft crumb and crunchy texture due to the sunflower seeds. Sunflower bread, or Sonnenblumenbrot is a favorite in Germany where it is more often made with rye flour, giving the bread a denser texture and earthier flavor. It is delicious when eaten plain or toasted as a breakfast item or for sandwiches.
