Ingredients

Servings

• 200 g of gluten-free pastry flour (I used 80 g of buckwheat flour, 80 g of rice flour, 40 g of chestnut flour.)

• 100 g of honey

• 50g brown sugar

• 100 ml of milk or vegetable milk

• 1 egg

• 1 tsp gluten-free baking powder

• ¹ ⁄ ₂ tsp cinnamon

• 1 tsp green anise

• 2 tsp 4 spices (or gingerbread mix)
• ¹ ⁄ ₂ tsp ginger
• 1 pinch of salt

Preparation

1. Preheat the oven to 160°C (320°F) and prepare a cake tin by greasing it or covering it with baking paper.
2. In a saucepan, gently heat the honey with the milk until the honey is melted.
3. In a large bowl, mix the flour, yeast, sugar, spices and salt.
4. Add the milk and honey mixture, as well as the egg, and mix until you obtain a homogeneous dough.
5. Pour the dough into the mold and bake for around 45 minutes. Check the cooking with a knife: the blade should come out dry.
6. Leave to cool before unmolding and serving.
