Ingredients
  • 200g of gluten-free pastry flour (I used 80g of buckwheat flour, 80g of rice flour, 40g of chestnut flour).
  • 100g of honey
  • 50g of brown sugar
  • 100 ml of milk or plant-based milk
  • 1 egg

  • 1/2 tsp ginger

Preparation
  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 160°C (320°F) and prepare a cake tin by greasing it or lining it with baking paper.

    In a saucepan, gently heat the honey with the milk until the honey is melted.
  3. 3
    In a large bowl, mix the flour, yeast, sugar, spices and salt.

    Add the milk and honey mixture, along with the egg, and mix until you obtain a smooth batter.

    Pour the batter into the tin and bake for about 45 minutes. Check for doneness with a knife: the blade should come out clean.
  6. 6
    Allow to cool before unmolding and serving.
