Teff is one of the smallest and oldest recognized grains in the world, and it sure is one of the mightiest. Native to Ethiopia, teff is utilized in a huge kind of ways, exciting simply cooked up as is right into a porridge, fashioned into savory desserts, integrated into soups, or ground into a flour and made into spongy injera breads to be served up with numerous legume and vegetable dishes ? Or, as in this case, as a characteristic of sweeter creations. Teff is also an extremely good source of dietary fiber, iron, calcium and protein.
This is my first time baking with teff flour, and it surely may not be the ultimate. Here, teff flour is the superstar in those gluten-free vegan-friendly cookies which are now my new declared favorite peanut butter cookie. I know I've made this declaration earlier than, however I've made a few batches of these teff and peanut butter cookies already, so till the subsequent extraordinary concept comes alongside, I'm smitten. The as a substitute slight but surprisingly earthy and nutty taste of teff combines perfectly with peanut butter in those delectably gentle, wet, melt-in-your-mouth delights with chunks of divine darkish chocolate. They also manifest to be wholesome enough to experience for breakfast with a pleasant cup of espresso. Peanut butter and chocolate are actually one of these desert-island-ought to mixtures that could be tough to do without.
Note: Teff flour can be difficult to find at regular grocery stores but many natural food stores will carry it in the Bob's Red Mill brand which is also available online at Amazon
