Desserts à la Mariane

This dessert bread is sweet, moist, and best of all, it’s easy to make. Enjoy a slice on its own or add your favorite spread to it.

Bread Ingredients:

• 1-14oz can (398 mL) butter beans
• 2 cups cashews
• 1 cup coconut sugar
• 1 cup egg whites
• 1 cup almond flour

Bread Directions:

Begin by opening your can of butter beans. Put them into a strainer and rinse them very well. Transfer the well-rinsed beans to the bowl of your food processor. Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl of your food processor. Process until smooth.

Grease one small loaf pans with coconut oil (I used one 8-inch by 4-inch pan). Pour the batter into the pan and smooth it out with the back of a spoon.

Place the loaf pan into preheated 350 degree Fahrenheit oven and bake for 50-60 minutes or until the top of the loaf is cracked, lightly browned, and a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out almost clean.

Note: all ovens are different so you may want to start checking on your bread every 10 minutes at the 40ish minute mark.

Let cool for 10-20 minutes before transferring to the fridge. Let cool in the fridge for 3-4 hours before removing the bread from the pan and slicing / serving.

Keep leftovers in the fridge.

Enjoy!
