Cocoa-Nana Bread

Hey guys! Another food post is coming your way! I decided to do something a little different with this recipe by including the macros (carbohydrate, protein and fat contents) and energy contents per portion. A lot of recipes you find online or even in cook books don’t include these so I thought would be helpful for anyone into fitness or who is tracking macros.

This recipe is vegan and provides 8 servings!

Ingredients:

Spelt Flour – 310 grams

Cocoa Powder – 30 grams

Baking Powder – 2 teaspoons

Ground Cinnamon – 1 teaspoon

Maple Syrup – 180 ml

Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk – 125 ml

Coconut Oil – 80 ml (normal oil can be used if you’re not a fan of coconut)

Mashed Ripe Banana – x3

Vanilla Extract – 1 teaspoon

Hot Water – 2 tablespoons

 

Method:

1. Pre-heat the oven to 180’c and line a loaf tin with baking paper let the paper hang the over the sides of the tin for easy removal
2. Whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, cinnamon and baking powder in a bowl
3. Create a well in the middle and add the maple syrup, almond milk, oil, water and vanilla extract into the well
4. Stir in the mashed banana and pour the mixture into the tin
5. Bake for 45 minutes
