Almost Paleo Veggie Bread
Ingredients:
2 cups almond meal
½ cup buckwheat flour
1 tablespoon psyllium husks
¼ teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon gluten free baking powder
1 cup grated raw pumpkin
1 cup grated zucchini
4 free range eggs
¼ cup cold-pressed extra virgin coconut oil, melted
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon rice malt syrup (optional)
Method:
Preheat oven to 180°C
Combine all dry ingredients in bowl, add grated vegetables
Beat eggs in separate bowl
Add eggs, coconut oil, apple cider vinegar and syrup to other ingredients and mix well
Spoon into greased or lined loaf tin and bake for 30-40mins, until skewer comes out clean
When cool, slice into approximately 12 serves and store in airtight container in fridge. Can be frozen.
Notes:
I omit the rice malt syrup, if I feel like a more savoury bread
This bread holds together well and is great toasted
Is also delicious with 2 cups pumpkin, if you happen to have no zucchini
You can also add sunflower/poppy seeds
