sesame bread

Seed-topped loaf

Sesame bread is bread topped or studded with sesame seeds, which add a nutty flavor and slight crunch.

The term covers various styles—from burger buns with seeds on top to Middle Eastern flatbreads like ka'ak where sesame is central to the character: I'll take the sesame bread for my sandwich.
