Boil the rye berries with 1 cup of water for 3 minutes and let them become lukewarm.
Add the ayran, remaining water, and yeast to the warm rye berries.
Stir in the salt, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and flaxseed.
Add the rye flour and white flour and knead into a dense, sticky dough.
Press the dough into a buttered loaf pan.
Prick the top with a fork, cover, and ferment in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
Let the dough stand at room temperature for 1 hour.
Bake the rugbrod at 200°C for 75 minutes.
Remove the bread from the pan and rest for at least 3 hours, until completely cool.
💡 Tip: Letting the bread cool completely before slicing preserves rugbrod's moist crumb.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Use as a base for open sandwiches with butter, cheese, smoked fish, or eggs.
