Banana Bread

Ingredients

250g Melted Butter or Coconut Oil
300g Dried Dates
200ml Warm Water
4 Eggs
4 Bananas
¾ T Baking Powder
500g Dessicated Coconut
125g Par Cooked Quinoa
125g Amaranth Flour
Salt Vanilla

Makes 2 Loaves

Directions

Preheat 180. Rinse the quinoa until the water runs clear. Put it in a pot of cold water to cover by a few cm, bring to boil and simmer until the quinoa begins to expand a little. Drain and spread. Line 2 loaf tins with baking paper. Warm the fat and add it with warm water to the dates. Let sit 10 minutes to soften. Add the eggs and bananas, mix these to a batter consistency-you can use your hands if you need to. Grind the amaranth in the blender if you can’t find flour.Combine all ingredients and separate into 2 tins, or you can bake 1 and then the other. Bake for 40 minutes @ 170, check doneness with a wooden skewer, it needs to be cooked through. Eat with Slabs of butter-toasted.

It is wonderful to have such good quality vegetables delivered to the door each week and I am full of admiration for Martin for developing an enterprise which benefits so many people and the land.
