Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp gound flaxseed
  • 2 1/2 Tbsp warm water
  • 1 1/4 cups mashed butternut or kabocha squash steamed or roasted, then puréed
  • 1/2 cup tahini or almond butter
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 1/3 cup coconut sugar
  • 2 Tbsp coconut oil melted
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla bean paste or extract
  • 1 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1 cup oat flour

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 F and line 8 x 8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  • To create flax egg, in small bowl, mix flaxseed with water, and set aside for 5 minutes, or until gelled.
  • In large bowl, combine squash, tahini, maple syrup, coconut sugar, coconut oil, vanilla, and flax egg until smooth. Stir in cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, salt, and baking soda. Fold in oat flour and almond flour until thick, cohesive batter forms. Do not overmix!
  • Scoop batter into prepared pan and spread evenly. Use spatula to smooth top—it’ll be thick!
