Sunflower Seed Pear Bread

I have discovered that I might be allergic to nuts, so I have been searching for another flour for my breads and such. I read an article about using sunflower seeds and grinding them to make flour. I had a recipe that I had tried and substituted sunflower seed flour for almond flour.

Makes 1 mini loaf
Ingredients
1 cup sunflower seed flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoons coconut milk
1/2 tablespoon coconut oil raw
1 tablespoons honey
2 eggs
1/2 cup diced pear

Method

Preheat oven to 350F.

Combine all the ingredients except the pear in a bowl and whisk until well combined.

Mix in the pear until evenly distributed. 

Place in greased mini loaf pan.


Bake for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown (or toothpick comes out clean.)
