Ingredients
 
 

  • 2 ¼ cups almond flour (260 grams)
  • ½ cup arrowroot flour (70 grams)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon fine grain sea salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • cup unsweetened applesauce
  • ¼ cup brown sugar, coconut sugar, or maple syrup
  • ¼ cup black tea
  • ½ cup raisins
  • ½ cup golden raisins

Instructions
 

  • Soak the raisins overnight: In a medium bowl, place raisins, 2 tea bags, and 1 ½ cups boiling water. Let this steep for about 10-12 hours.
  • After soaking the raisins, drain the tea and reserve ¼ cup. Remove the tea bags.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F degrees, lightly grease a 9x5 loaf pan, and line the bottom with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl whisk together the almond flour, arrowroot, baking powder, and salt.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, applesauce, coconut sugar, and tea. Stir in the raisins. Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until just combined.
  • Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan, place in the oven, and bake for 45-50 minutes. Remove from oven and place on a rack to cool for 10 minutes, then turn out onto the rack to cool completely. Let the loaf cool completely before serving.
  • Loaf will keep, well wrapped in the fridge, for 5 days.
