Total Time 40 minutes
Servings 6 Mini Loafs
Ingredients
- 1/2 Cup Honeycrisp Apple (100g)
- 1/3 Cup Coconut Flour
- 1/3 Cup Almond Flour
- 1 Egg
- 3 Tbsp Fresh Grated Ginger
- 2.5 Tbs Date Paste (see notes)

Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and prepare a mini loaf pan by spraying it lightly with oil of choice.
-
Peel an apple and then shred it using a shredder or food processor until you have about 100g or 1/2 cup of shreds. A cheese grate can also work. Set apple shreds aside.
-
In a blender or food processor add all ingredients except the pecans and apple shreds. Blend until mixed thoroughly.
-
Add apple shreds and pecans then blend very briefly to mix them through the batter.
-
Pour the batter evenly into 6 mini loaf cavities and bake for 20-25 minutes or until loafs are stiff and golden brown on the sides.
-
Let them cool for a few minutes and enjoy!
Notes
- My mini-loaf pan makes loafs that are about 3" x 1" x 1.5". You may need to modify baking times if your pan is drastically different.
