  • 1/3 cup organic unsweetened cocoa
  • 2 tsp. baking powder

      INSTRUCTIONS

      1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

      2. Line a 9 in. loaf pan with parchment paper lengthwise for easy removal.

      3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together dry ingredients (flours & spices). Add in the eggs, molasses, coconut oil, milk & vanilla extract; beat well, until the batter is smooth (use a stand mixer or hand mixer).

      4. Pour batter into loaf pan and bake in centre of oven for about an hour. Check for doneness with a cake thermometer.

      5. Allow the loaf to cool in the pan on a wire rack until the loaf is cool enough to handle.

      6. Using a thin spatula, loosen the loaf from the sides of the pan and using the parchment paper “handle”, lift loaf out of pan and allow to fully cool on a wire rack.
