Servings: 10 slices
Calories: 223kcal
Ingredients
- 2 cups quinoa uncooked
- 1 cup oat flour*
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp baking powder aluminum free
- 1/4 tsp himalayan pink salt
- 3 tbsp coconut oil or butter room T
- 2 cups any milk I used unsweetened almond
- 1 tbsp maple syrup or raw honey
- 1 tbsp any vinegar I used apple cider
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and grease 8" x 5" loaf tin with butter or coconut oil well.
- In a high-speed blender or food processor, grind quinoa for a few minutes until flour forms. Transfer to a large mixing bowl along with oat flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt; stir very well. Add butter or coconut oil and stir until it is incorporated with dry ingredients in small pieces.
- In a medium bowl, whisk milk, maple syrup and vinegar. Pour into a bowl with dry ingredients and mix well with spatula.
- Transfer to a prepared loaf tin, level and sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired. Bake for 60 minutes loosely covered with parchment paper for the first 30 minutes to prevent top from burning.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for about an hour. Then loosen the sides with a knife, flip the tin and give a few gentle pats on a bottom. Bread should slide out and cool off completely before slicing.
Notes
- Store: Refrigerate in a sealed plastic bag for about 2 weeks.
- Freeze: Tightly wrapped up to 3 months.
- Make oat flour by grinding quick or rolled oats. I think ratio is 1:1 but measure after anyways.
- Also you can use spelt or whole wheat flour in place of oat flour. Bread will be dryer and nuttier but still good. I prefer oat flour.
- For gluten free bread version use Gluten Free certified oats.
