ReplyDeleteaww Angie I love yours loaf and breads always look amazing and delicious !!
ReplyDeleteAngie, so many things going on in this bread and they all sound delicious!
ReplyDeleteHow interesting! I've always wanted to make something with beets and cocoa. Does the red wheat contribute to the color? And then the raisins and walnuts - sure! But what's maple syrup doing in there? That makes it sound so intriguing.
ReplyDeletelove this red themed bake for autumn. The loaf looks really wholesome and rustic.
ReplyDelete@Jeff Not really. The colour is basically just from beets. I also baked quick bread with just red wheat and the colour turned out very brownish.

Beetroot and chocolate - a combination that I've just recently been introduced to and feel in love. It's so moist and flavorful just like the look of your beetroot loaf. Beautiful load!
ReplyDeleteI always learn something new from you :). First time seeing ghee used in a cake.
ReplyDeleteIt looks so deliciously moist. I often buy those vacuumed beets, use a couple for a recipe and always wonder what to do with the rest, except salad. This loaf would be a great way of using them.
