Serves 8-10

Time: 60 minutes

• 2 cups oat flour, gluten-free if necessary
• 1 cup almond flour
• 1 cup coconut sugar
• 1/2 cup Laird Superfood Hot Chocolate
• 1/4 cup cocoa powder
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1 cup water
• 3 tbsp melted refined coconut oil
• 1 tsp lemon juice or apple cider vinegar
• 1 tsp vanilla paste or extract
• 1 cup dark chocolate, melted, to coat

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350F/180. Line a 9-inch loaf pan with non-stick parchment paper. Set aside.
2. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the oat flour, almond flour, coconut sugar, superfood hot chocolate, cocoa powder, baking powder and baking soda. Stir with a whisk until uniform.
3. Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and pour in the water, melted coconut oil, lemon juice and vanilla. Stir until uniform and lump-free.
4. Pour batter into loaf pan and bake for 45-50 minutes, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
5. Remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then turn out onto a plate and cool completely.
6. Pour the melted dark chocolate over the loaf and spread it around with a spatula. Let it set for 15-30 minutes until the chocolate has firmed up.
7. Serve immediately or keep at room temperature in an air-tight container until needed.
