How to Prepare Chai Spiced Poached Pear Coconut Loaf [Vegan, Gluten-Free]
- Preheat the oven to 355°F and grease and line a loaf tin.
- Place the pears in a large pan with boiling water to cover. Place the tea bags in, cover with a lid and poach for 10 minutes, until softened. Leave to cool.
- Mix together the oat flour, coconut sugar, flax seeds, desiccated coconut, baking powder, baking soda, and spices in a large bowl.
- Stir in the maple syrup, coconut oil, vinegar, and coconut milk, plus 1 1/2 cups of the tea liquid from the poached pears. Mix well to form a batter.
- Spoon some of this into the loaf tin up to halfway. Now carefully drop the pears in with a small gap between them.
- Spoon more batter around the pears in between the gaps to reach the top of the loaf tin (you may have some mixture leftover).
- Bake for 30 minutes, then scatter over 1 tablespoon coconut sugar mixed with 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon.
- Continue baking for another 15 minutes, until firm, risen, and golden. Leave to cool in the tin.
- Gently lift out the cake when cooled down, then slice and serve.
