Yields24 Servings
Prep Time30 minsCook Time6 minsTotal Time36 mins
For the powdered baking blend
 1 cup Whole Earth Sweetener Baking Blend
 1 tsp Organic corn starch
For the proofing
 1 ½ tsp active baking yeast
 3 tbsp powdered baking blend
 1 cup full-fat coconut milk from a can
For the dough
 2 tbsp aquafaba, the drained water from a can of chickpeas
 2 tsp vanilla
 2 tbsp melted coconut oil
 3 cups unbleached white flour
1

Add the Whole Earth Baking Blend and corn starch to your blender and blend until powdery smooth. The cornstarch will keep it from clumping so you can store it if you don't use it all in the recipe. (Or you can substitute regular powdered sugar later in the recipe.)

2

Heat the coconut milk until it's warm but cool enough that you can stick your finger in it without burning yourself. If it's too hot, you will kill the yeast. Add it to your mixer with the sugar and yeast. Let sit 10 minutes, until the yeast begins to foam.

Once the flour is mixing in and the dough is coming away from the sides of the mixer, change to your dough hook if you have one. (If you don't, keep using the paddle.)

5

Knead the dough in your mixer for about 3 minutes. The dough will be wetter than if you were making a loaf of bread, but you should be able to scrape out the dough and form a ball without it staying on your hands.

Place dough in a mixing bowl and cover with a clean dish towel and let rise for 1 hour.
