Ingredients:
- 150g gluten-free flour
- 100g sweetener
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 3 tablespoons smooth nut butter
- 200ml oat milk
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Dash of almond extract (optional)
- 4 tablespoons black cherry jam
- 4 teaspoons pistachio spread
Make them!
- Mix together the flour, sweetener and baking powder in a large bowl.
- Whisk together the nut butter, milk, oil, vanilla and almond extract then pour in and mix well to combine.
- Spoon this into a greased and lined 9x9in baking tin. Add the cherry jam and pistachio cream in small spoonfuls dotted around, then spread them out with a fork or knife to roughly swirl.
- Bake at 180C for 20-25 minutes until golden and firm, allow to cool in the tin for 10 minutes. Cut into 8 slices then leave in the tin – remove once cooled, and enjoy!
