Recipe


Ingredients

  • 2 cups raw grated pumpkin
  • ½ onion, finely diced
  • 1 cup tapioca flour
  • ¾ cup buckwheat flour
  • 1 cup coconut flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp sea salt
  • 4 eggs
  • ½ cup almond milk
  • ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 100g feta, crumbled (optional, leave out to make loaf dairy-free)

Method


  • Preheat oven to 200ºC. Grease and line bread tin with olive oil and baking paper.
  • Add all of above ingredients into large bowl and mix well to combine. Mixture will seem really dry; this is due to coconut flour. Do not add any more liquid to mixture because as pumpkin cooks in oven it will release water and make bread nice and moist.
  • Spoon mixture into bread tin and make sure to flatten mixture and push it right into each corner.
  • Bake in oven for 1 hour. Check after 50 mins — you’ll know it’s ready when it’s firm to touch in middle and it has nice golden colour.
  • Allow to cool before removing from tin and make sure loaf is completely cool before slicing it; otherwise you’ll end up with a lot of crumbs!
