Kneipp Bread (Kneippbrød)

Kneippbrød is a traditional bread originating from Norway that's named after Sebastian Kneipp, a 19th-century Bavarian priest, who is credited with being the first person to use the whole grain (shell, kernel, and germ) when making bread.

Although there are many variations on the bread, it's usually made with 100% whole wheat flour, yeast, salt, milk, water, and rapeseed oil. The smooth and firm dough is proofed and baked in buttered loaf pans until golden brown. The bread came to Norway in 1895, and nowadays it's one of the most popular types of bread in the country.
