Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1/3 cup unsulphered molasses
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 6 Tbsp avocado oil or melted coconut oil
- 1½ Tbsp fresh ginger peeled and grated
- 1/3 cup coconut flour
- 1 2/3 cups almond flour
- 3 Tbsp tapioca flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
Zesty Coconut Milk Glaze:
- ¾ cup full-fat canned coconut milk*
- ¼ tsp lemon zest
- 1 Tbsp pure maple syrup
- Pinch sea salt
- 2 Tbsp candied ginger chopped, optional
Instructions
- Prepare the glaze. Add all the ingredients for the glaze, except for the candied ginger, to a small saucepan. Bring to a full boil, reduce the heat to a gentle boil and cook until thick, whisking frequently, about 10-15 minutes. Pour the glaze into a bowl and refrigerate for 2 hours. The glaze will thicken more in the refrigerator.
- Preheat the oven to 375° F and lightly oil a 9” x 5” loaf pan. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the first six ingredients (eggs through ginger) until combined. In a separate bowl, stir together the remaining (dry) ingredients (coconut flour through nutmeg). Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix until combined. (Note: you can also add all the ingredients for the bread to a blender and blend until smooth).
- Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan and smooth evenly. Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the loaf is brown around the edges and tests clean when poked in the center with a toothpick.
- Allow the bread to cool at least 30 minutes before turning it out onto a cutting board. Drizzle with the glaze and sprinkle with chopped candied ginger. Slice thick slices using a sharp knife and serve.
