Wanna share a recipe?
Kakaobrot
500g flour
250g sugar
1 baking powder
Some big spoons of baking cacao (~3)
a little cinnamon (tip of a knife)
Blending all of it with some sips of plant milk until you get a sticky dough. Grease a baking mould ( add a bit of flour/ausmehlen) and fill the dough in. Bake it for about 50 minutes at 170 degrees. Stick a chopstick in - if there isn’t any dough sticking to it by pulling out, your KAKAOBROT is ready. Enjoy it fresh and with Plant Butter. But carefully - it’s addictive!
Running Mantra: Adapt Endure Overcome.
