Cook Time: 1 hour 15 mins        Makes 1 Loaf

Ingredients

• 2 tbsp ONE ORGANIC Hojicha
• 3 2 cups all purpose flour
• 1/2 tsp kosher salt
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp pumpkin spice
• 2 eggs
• 2 cups mashed sweet potatoes
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter
• 1/3 cup buttermilk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup turbinado sugar, optional

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and grease an 8×4″ loaf pan.
2. In a large bowl, whisk flour, salt, baking soda, pumpkin spice, and 2 tablespoons of hojicha powder.
3. In a separate bowl, mash your sweet potatoes. Add in eggs, brown sugar, butter, buttermilk, and vanilla extract.
4. Stir wet and dry ingredients together until you have a batter with no dry lumps remaining.
5. Pour batter to your prepared loaf pan and sprinkle the top with turbinado sugar (if using).
6. Bake for one hour. Check for doneness by sticking a wooden skewer down the center of your bread. If the skewer comes out with wet batter, continue baking until the skewer comes out clean, up to 10-15 min
7. Allow banana bread to cool to room temperature, then slice and serve with your favorite iced or hot hojicha latte!
