COURGETTE & ROSEMARY LOAF (grain & gluten free, paleo)

IMG_1346

It has been almost five years since I’ve had a delicious piece of toast! It’s not easy to come across a good loaf of grain-free bread, but when toasted, this one is the best I’ve tasted so far.

Packed full of healthy fats, digestible fibre and plenty of protein this loaf is best enjoyed sliced, toasted under the grill, and slathered with butter, coconut oil or cheese. Total comfort food!

Ingredients

  • 2 cups grated courgette
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil
  • 2 TBSP water
  • 1 TBSP apple cider vinegar
  • 4 eggs
  • 3/4 cup coconut flour
  • 1/2 cup ground flaxseeds OR 4 TBSP chia seeds
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 TBSP dried rosemary
  • pinch of salt

Preparation

Preheat oven to 180 C

Line a loaf tin (roughly 20cm long) with non-toxic baking paper

Directions

Blend/whisk all wet ingredients together

In another bowl combine all the dry ingredients then add the grated courgette

Fold the wet mix into the dry mix and combine everything until it’s like a wet gooey dough

Spoon into the baking tin

Bake for around 45-55 minutes

Wait for the loaf to cool before taking out of the tin, then allow to cool completely before cutting a slice (if you can wait!)

  1. oh honey, I am so glad I can eat gluten.  yes, this sounds yummy for a one off, but crikey I couldn’t do it regularly.  As it is I have a piece of toast maybe once a week for a treat, so I am being good.  Really use lots of coconut oil not, never use olive oil except from drizzling so I am not all horrible! hahahah love to you, Dave and the pussy cat dolls x   From: TASHA/BE To: karenkalaway@yahoo.co.uk Sent: Tuesday, 10 February 2015, 9:13 Subject: [New post] COURGETTE & ROSEMARY LOAF (grain & gluten free, paleo) #yiv5889262719 a:hover {color:red;}#yiv5889262719 a {text-decoration:none;color:#0088cc;}#yiv5889262719 a.yiv5889262719primaryactionlink:link, #yiv5889262719 a.yiv5889262719primaryactionlink:visited {background-color:#2585B2;color:#fff;}#yiv5889262719 a.yiv5889262719primaryactionlink:hover, #yiv5889262719 a.yiv5889262719primaryactionlink:active {background-color:#11729E;color:#fff;}#yiv5889262719 WordPress.com | tashabe posted: “It has been almost five years since I’ve had a delicious piece of toast!
