Servings: persons

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup
3/4 cup lukewarm water
1 tablespoon active dry yeast
2 1/2 cups teff flour
1 cup brown rice flour, plus extra for kneading the dough
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon xanthan gum

1/2 cup dried currants
1/4 cup candied orange peel
1/2 cup chopped blanched almonds
Zest of one medium lemon (about 2 teaspoons)

1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and generously dust your work surface with brown rice flour.
2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, honey, water, and yeast.
3
In a separate bowl, combine the teff and brown rice flours, salt, xanthan gum, yam, cranberries, currants, orange peel, almonds and lemon zest.
4
As soon as the yeast is active (it will take 3 to 5 minutes), gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.
5
This can be done by hand or with an electric mixer on low speed.
6
Be sure not to overmix.
7
As soon as the dough forms, remove it from the bowl and gently knead it for 3 or 4 turns on your floured work surface.
8
Shape it into a 10-inch-long batarde.
9
Transfer the loaf to a baking sheet, and bake for about 1 hour and 10 minutes, or until golden and firm to the touch.
10
When the bread is cool, dust it liberally with sifted powdered evaporated cane juice.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
