Ingredients
- 150 grams Fine polenta
- 150 grams All-purpose flour
- 10 grams Baking powder
- 5 grams Salt
- 2 grams Baking soda
- 80 ml Olive oil
- 250 ml Unsweetened almond milk
- 10 ml Apple cider vinegar
- 50 ml Maple syrup
- 15 grams Ground flaxseeds
- 45 ml Water
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix the ground flaxseeds with the water to create a flax egg. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to thicken.
Step 3
In a large bowl, whisk together the polenta, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda until well combined.
Step 4
In another mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, almond milk, apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, and the prepared flax egg. Mix until all liquids are well incorporated.
Step 5
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix to avoid a dense bread.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Step 8
Let the polenta bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Slice and serve as desired. It's perfect on its own or with a spread of dairy-free butter.
