Recipe

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease an 8″ x 4″ x 4″ loaf pan and dust with brown rice flour or teff flour.

Step 2: In a medium bowl, combine the teff flour, tapioca flour, arrowroot, baking soda, cinnamon, salt and ginger.

Step 3: In a separate large bowl (or the bowl of a stand mixer), combine the maple syrup, coconut oil, vanilla extract and water. Add the dry ingredients and mix well by hand with a whisk or on low in the mixer, breaking up any lumps of flour. Once a smooth batter is achieved, fold in the peach pieces.*

Step 4: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes, until golden and firm to the touch, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

* Please do not be alarmed that this dough/batter is indeed more batter-like and quite thin. When the bread pops out of the oven and has cooled slightly, you will be delighted with its exquisite tea bread consistency and lovely taste.
