So when the weather gets cold and frigid, I advise you to bake this banana bread, enjoy it with a cup of hot tea and sit by the fireplace under a warm blanket - soon you'll forget all about the winter and it's wretchedness. And if you don't have a fireplace, you can always imagine.
Ingredients:
For the banana bread:
3 ripe bananas
125 g seedless dates
2 eggs
0,5 dl rape oil
0,5 dl soymilk
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp himalaya rose salt
1/2 dl minced hazelnuts
1 dl quinoa flakes
1 dl soyflour
1 dl wholewheat flour
1 dl buckwheat flour
2 tbsp honey
For the chocolate & hazelnut paste:
3 dl minced hazelnuts
1 dl melted dark chocolate
dollop of rape oil, to make this paste fluid
1. Heat oven into 200°C degrees. Boil some water, soak the dates for 5 mins to soften them a bit. Chop the softened dates into tiny bits.
2. Beat the eggs into a foam. Add the dates, add oil. Mash two of the bananas.
3. Mix together all the dry ingredients. Combine the dry ingredients with the egg-mixture and the mashed bananas, add soymilk.
4. Fold a long shaped bread mould with parchment paper, pour the batter on it. Cut the third banana into slices, put into a line on top of the batter. Spread honey over.
5. Bake in the oven for 20-30 minutes, try with a stick if it's ready. Remove from the oven.
6. Mix together the minced hazelnuts and the melted chocolate, add oil to make a smooth paste.
7. Serve the banana bread with the chocolate & hazelnut paste.
