Ingredients:

  • 1 cup buckwheat flour

  • ½ cup almond flour (I used Sukrin_

  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder

  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

  • 4 tablespoons coconut sugar

  • 2 teaspoons Mighty Matcha tea powder

  • 2 overripe bananas

  • 2 eggs

  • 2 tablespoons almond or coconut milk

  • 2 tablespoons tahini

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 x 50g bar of vegan dark chocolate (I used Conscious Chocolate 70%)

 

Get baking!

  1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C and lightly grease and line a loaf tin - or use a silicone one and in which case you don’t need to worry!

  2. Mix together the flours, protein powder, baking powder, coconut sugar and Mighty Matcha tea powder in a large bowl.

  3. Break the chocolate into small chunks and stir in to coat.

  4. Place the bananas, eggs, milk, tahini and vanilla extract in a blender and whizz up until smooth.

  5. Pour this into the dry ingredients and stir to combine, you should have a nice thick green (don’t be put off, it’s the wonderful matcha goodness!) batter.

  6. Spoon into your tin and spread evenly, then bake for about 45 minutes in total - you might want to cover it in tin foil halfway through to prevent burning.

  7. Leave to cool in the tin for about 30 minutes, then turn out on a wire rack to cool completely. Slice up and enjoy!
