Preheat the oven to gas 4 / 180C / 350°F and grease & flour a loaf tin
Mix the flours, baking powder, cinnamon, xanthan gum (if using gluten-free flour) and salt together
Add in the amazake, syrup, oil, apples and raisins
Stir into a thick but pourable batter add a few tbsp of rice milk or milk of choice as needed
Bake for 25 - 35 minutes until golden and the top is springy. You can test in the usual way with a toothpick
Let cool in the tin for 5 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack
Cool completely then slice. Serves 8 slices
Recipe can be doubled, bake for 45 minutes then cover with foil so it doesn't burn on top and bake a further 15 - 20 minutes. Serves 8 large slices to halve
Amazake is a great discovery I've made! The only ingredients are a grain such as rice or millet, salt and water but it tastes very sweet, almost like pudding. It's generally used to make a hot drink by mixing it with hot water but I've used it here as an egg replacer. It works brilliantly!
