Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Whole wheat flour
- 50 grams Almond flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cloves
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground allspice
- 100 milliliters Milk (or almond milk for dairy-free)
- 100 grams Honey
- 100 grams Applesauce
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 75 grams Dark chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the whole wheat flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, ground cloves, ground nutmeg, and ground allspice.
In a separate bowl, mix the milk, honey, applesauce, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until a smooth dough forms.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips into the dough.
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and shape it into a long log about 5 cm wide.
Place the dough log on the prepared baking sheet and gently flatten the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes or until firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before cutting the log into diagonal pieces about 2 cm wide.
Arrange the cut pieces back on the baking sheet, cut sides up, and bake for an additional 5 minutes to get a nice crust.
Let cool completely before serving. Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
