Tip

Slice freezes very well for grain free lunch box idea.  Can also be cooked in cake tin to make it a cake.  For dairy free, you can replace butter with olive oil or coconut oil.  Add some extras like 1/4 tsp of cinnamon, ground ginger or ground coffee when you add the chia seeds.  You can also add walnuts, and mix in using reverse function

    So quick and easy and yet delicious. Will keep this as a replacement to chocolate cake as it didnt have the texture of a brownie on top.  I didnt have any almonds so I used cashews instead.

     Made this slice to today and was very happy as it is so moist and tastes great for a grain free cake....I will certainly make this again and try the variations suggested by other likers...

    YUM! I just made this and it's delicious! I used 100g coconut oil in place of butter and 120g rapadura.  Such a moist slice - thank you!

    Hi there, I love this recipe - its from Tania Hubbards book - gluten free grain free food we love - she posted this recipe on her website a while ago and has just popped it across on her blog with the raw chocolcate glaze she puts on top in her book.  I met with her the other day to see how it could be made sugar free for my kids - she has changed to recipe so it is now 2 small red apples grated (in place of the coconut palm sugar) and it was fantastic.  The apple and cocoa made this cake taste fantastic.  She also added extra cinnamon to the recipe - 2 teaspoons.
