Glutenfree bread



Hello there, 
This will be a quick one to share this delicious glutenfree bread recipe with you.  I made my first gluten free loaf yesterday and I must admit that I was very sceptical at first.  It did not look like it was going to rise. 
But as the dough started cooking in the oven, the smell that filled my kitchen told me everything was going to be okay. :) 
You  need:
250g Gluten free bread flour
1 teaspoon guar gum
1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
1 cup of water
80ml coconut oil (melted)
1 Tablespoon xylitol 
2 eggs
Pinch of salt
Optional:  2 tablespoons dried cranberries or raisin,  1 tablespoon crushed nuts 
Mix everything and scoop mixture in a breadpan. 
Bake for 60 minutes at 180
These types of bread tend to go stale quite fast, so I cut mine in advance and put it in the freezer to take it out as I need.

Over night coconut oatbran

When I made this the first time, It was one of those aaaaaaaaaah moments.  You know?  When you get it JUST right! Creamy and delicious with a hint of coconut and cinnamon. 

I have mine with a cup of chicory in the morning.  Chicory is a very good pre-biotic 
I love this meal, but still a little too fiber sensitive to have it daily.  

Make yours:

40g Oat bran
20g soaked and chopped almonds ( I love soaked almonds) 
5g chia seeds
150ml coconut milk
150ml water
1 teaspoon of cinnamon


Simply add everything to a shaker and let it sit overnight. 

Heat in the morning and add xylitol to taste.  I cannot get enough of this! #oatsjunkie!
