Gluten Free Bread: Applesauce Teff Bread

Ingredients:

2 1/2 cups teff  or Sorghum flour

1/2 cup Brown rice flour

1/4 cup ground flax seed

1/2 cup agave nectar or honey

1 tsp salt

1 heaping tsp cinnamon

2 Tbs dry buttermilk powder

1 Tbs baking powder

1 cup chopped nuts (I like pecans or walnuts)

1/2 cup raisins, or coconut,

2 ripe bananas, mashed

1 1/2 cups natural, no sugar added applesauce

3 Tbs coconut oil

1 tsp vanilla

up to 1/2 cup water ( buttermilk) to get the proper consistency in the

batter

Preheat oven to 350F. Combine all ingredients except water or buttermilk. Add enough water to make a moist yet firm,  batter . Spoon into a greased 9 x 9 square baking dish, or into greased muffin tins if you want cupcakes. Bake for 20-35 minutes for cupcakes,

50-75 minutes for cake, until the center is firm to the touch. Serve with jam or topping

To make this cake more of a cake consistency use all teff or Sorghum

flour (3 cups) . Frost with cream cheese frosting. Pillsbury is gluten free.

This makes a great substitution for the Bran muffins we all miss so much.

Gluten Free Bread: Applesauce Teff Cake/Bread

Gluten Free Bread/Banana Nut Bread

This gluten free Banana Nut bread is so moist and tasty.  The secret weapon is the topping!  I have given this Banana Nut Bread as Christmas treats for very many years and no one has ever realized that it is gluten free.  If  you want to use 2 1/2 cups of all purpose gluten free flour in this bread instead of the coconut flour, Teff flour and buckwheat flour it turns out awesome also.

Sift Together in a bowl:

1 cup gluten free all purpose flour

1/2 cup coconut flour

1/2 cup teff flour

1/2 cup buckwheat flour

1/3 cup sourdough (optional) I use this if I have a batch going

1  2/3 cup sugar

1  1/4 tsp baking powder

1  1/4 tsp baking soda

1 tsp salt

2/3 cup coconut oil or vegetable oil

1/3 cup buttermilk (may use 2 1/2 TBS Buttermilk powder for recipe plus 2/3 cup water)

1  1/4 cup mashed bananas

Beat for 2 minutes with mixer and add:

1/3 cup buttermilk

2 large eggs

2/3 cup walnuts (optional)

Grease and flour Two  9″ x 5″ x 3″  loaf pans.  Divide  the batter equally  between the 2 pans.  Bake at 350 degrees 45-55 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.  You can also make 6 mini loaves.  Bake 25-30 minutes.

Topping:

1/2 cup butter

1/2 cup brown sugar

Mix together and brush on the hot loaves when they come out of the oven.  Use any leftover topping to spread on Banana Nut bread slices.
