Gluten Free Carrot Cake Loaf
Servings: 7-8
Ingredients:
Dry:
-
1 1/3 cups gluten free flour (Bob’s Red Mill)
-
2 tbsp ground flaxseed
-
3/4 tsp cinnamon
-
1/2 tsp salt
-
1 tsp baking powder
-
1/2 tsp baking soda
Wet:
-
4 ripe bananas mashed
-
1 orange squeezed plus 1 tsp of the orange zest
-
2 tbsp coconut oil
Fold in:
-
3 medium carrots grated
-
1/2 cup gluten free oats (Bob’s Red Mill)
-
1 cup walnuts minced
Directions:
-
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees.
-
In a bowl, mix together all the dry ingredients.
-
In a second bowl, mix together all the wet ingredients.
-
In a third bowl, mix together all the fold in ingredients.
-
Add the wet ingredients to the first bowl with the dry ingredients and mix together well with your hands.
-
Add the fold in ingredients into the same bowl and mix again with your hands.
-
Brush a piece of baking paper with coconut oil and place it into a rectangular baking pan.
-
Empty the loaf ingredients onto the baking paper inside the baking pan.
-
Place the loaf in the middle rack of the oven and bake until crispy on the outside (about 45 minutes). Use a toothpick to make sure the inside is also cooked.
Note: The inside will probably still have a mushy consistency after it is baked. Every time you serve a piece, toast it in the oven first for added flavor.
