Ingredients
- Bread
-
200 grams
coconut oil
-
100 grams
rice malt syrup
-
150 grams
buckwheat flour
-
1 teaspoon
baking powder
-
2
ripe bananas
-
200 milliliters
almond milk
- Chocolate Glazing
-
50 grams
coconut oil
-
30 grams
raw cacao powder
-
4 tablespoons
rice malt syrup
-
1 pinch

Directions
-
Start by pre-heating your oven to 180 degrees and grease a loaf pan (30 cm) with a little liquid coconut oil.
-
Now melt the 200g coconut oil in the microwave or over hot water and mix then with the rice malt syrup.
-
Combine in a separate bowl the flour with ground almonds and the baking powder.
-
In your mixer purée the bananas and almond milk.
-
Now mix together the coconut oil, the flour mix and the bananas in a bowl to form a smooth dough. The dough should be thick and not runny.
-
Add the dough into the pan and put it in the oven for about 40-50 minutes. Every now and then, stick a toothpick into the centre of the bread and only when there is no longer dough on it the bread is done.
-
Remove the bread from the oven and remove it from the pan onto a grill or chopping board to cool.
-
In the meantime, you can make the glaze by simply heating the coconut oil in a small pot and add all the other ingredients with a whisk, when the oil has become liquid. Brush the glaze directly over the bread, preferably with a small brush and let it dry. Enjoy!
