Apple, Sandalwood Nut + Boab Loaf
Glen Hagger
The flavours and textures of this Apple, Sandalwood Nut + Boab Loaf reminds us of home-made apple pie. The sweetness from the apple, crunch from the nuts and tangy flavour from the baobab work extremely well together to create a warming, flavourful loaf.
Using our GH Produce Paleo Banana Bread Mix, creating this recipe is too easy! We have simply swapped out the bananas from some natural yogurt, fruit and nuts. In this case, we are using WA Sandalwood Nuts. These nuts are native to Australia and contain a whole range of goodness!
