Introduction

Though this tender, cake-like bread is gluten free, you will never notice! Since it makes two loaves, slice one after they cool completely and store it wrapped in foil in the freezer. The other one, if you keep it in an airtight container, will last about 5 days. Adapted from Cake and Commerce Though this tender, cake-like bread is gluten free, you will never notice!

Ingredients

    1/2 cup teff flour
    1/2 cup sorghum flour
    1 cup buckwheat flour
    1/4 cup tapioca flour
    1/4 cup sweet rice flour
    2 tbsp cornstarch
    2/3 cup sugar
    1/2 tbsp baking powder
    1 1/4 tsp baking soda
    1 tsp salt
    1/2 tsbp Chinese 5-Spice
    1/2 cup shortening
    1/4 cup canola oil
    6 bananas, mashed
    1/2 cup brown sugar
    2 tbsp dark agave nectar (or honey)
    1/4 cup orange juice
    1/3 cup low-fat soy milk mixed with 1 tbsp lemon juice (or rice milk or dairy buttermilk)
    5 oz silken tofu, pureed (or 2 eggs, or other replacer equivalent)
    1 tbsp vanilla
    1 cup miniature chocolate chips (make sure they're GF)

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 F, grease 2 loaf pans or line with parchment
Combine flours, cornstarch, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and 5-spice in a bowl.
Cut in the shortening until the mixture has the consistency of coarse meal (like with pie dough).
In another bowl, beat together oil, bananas, brown sugar, agave, orange juice, soy milk, tofu puree and vanilla.
Add to the crumbly mixture and combine well (you don't have to worry about overmixing here, get out the lumps).
Fold in the chocolate chips.
Bake 50 minutes - 1 hour, until a toothpick inserted in the loaf comes out clean.
Cool 10 minutes in the pan before turning out onto a rack and cooling completely.
