Paleo (Flourless) Sweet Potato Bread
There are days that I just love baking. I'll bake three or four things if I'm not busy with running the kids around or doing chores and the easiest thing is to throw everything into one bowl, mix and pour into a baking dish and set the timer and walk away. This is one of those easy receips!
Check out another easy paleo, flourless "bread" recipe found here. For those of you allergic to gluten, this is a great recipe as it provides lots of healthy fat and vegetables! My kids eat this and prefer it to unhealthy desserts. Try this out; you won't be disappointed!

They taste amazing, but mine is so gooey it just falls right apart, can't eat it as slices like I thought I could. Any suggestions how to make it thicker?
ReplyDeleteHi Mandy,
DeleteI haven't tried to slice it as you would bread, but it's texture is similar to cake.. light and fluffy.. so I can imagine it would be pretty difficult to get thin slices. The only way would be to freeze it then slice it and thaw it.
Hope that helps!

Made this for breakfast today. Yummy. What I loved is that it's not too sweet but it fills the craving for baked goods for breakfast. I just ditched breakfast cereal for me kids so I've been looking for recipes to ease the transition and this definitely fit the bill. Didn't have chocolate chips so used raisins. Gonna try the banana versioin next.
ReplyDeleteGreat! I'm glad you tried it. I love this recipe!

Do you think a chia seed "egg" would work? Hubby is allergic to eggs.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely. It should definitely work.
