Prep: 20 minCook: 1 minTotal: 80 min

Ingredients

  • 50 g 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • Aquafaba of 1 Glass chickpeas or white beans
  • 120 gr 3/4 cup raw cane sugar
  • Juice of 1/2 orange
  • 1 tsp ginger powder
  • 2 tsp gingerbread spice
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 250 gr 2 cups spelt flour
  • 150 gr 1 ¼ cup nuts (almonds, hazelnuts or both)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 160°C (320°F) and put a baking paper inside a loaf pan
  2. Put the aquafaba in a bowl or food processor and whip until creamy
  3. Slowly stir in powdered sugar, sugar and orange juice
  4. Mix flour, baking powder and all spices and add them to the whipped mass along with the nuts (it’s ok if the mass collapses a little)
  5. Put it into the loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes
  6. Let it cool off and wrap it into a damp towel over night
  7. Preheat the oven to 200°C (392°F) the next day
  8. Cut the „cake“ into thin slices (approx. 0.2“) by using either a sharp knife or a bread slicer, place them on a baking paper and bake them again for 7-8 minutes (keep an eye on them, they should only turn golden, not brown)
