Hunza Diet Bread


Submitted by cashmere2

Makes 128 servings

Hunza Diet Bread is a delicious, dense, chewy bread that's very nutritious and is almost impervious to spoilage. The following recipe makes a huge batch of approximately 128 squares, high in protein, vitamins and minerals. Keeps weeks at room temperature, even longer in the fridge and indefinitely in the freezer. It has a taste that is very satisfying and chewy all on its own, but you may also add apricots, raisins, chopped walnuts, almonds, sliced dates to the ingredients.

3 1/2 pounds buckwheat flour
1 1/2 cups coconut oil
1 1/2 cups sugar

1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 teaspoons baking powder
