Ingredients:

 

1 cup plus 2 Tsp amaranth flour

1/4 cup arrowroot

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp powdered ginger

1/2 cup currants

1/2 cup brazil nuts

3/4 cup boiling unsweetened fruit juice or water

1/4 cup molasses

1 Tsp lemon juice or 1/4 tsp vitamin C crystals

 

Directions:

 

Oil a 1-pound baking tin. Fill a Dutch oven or stock pot with about 5 inches

of water. Bring water to the boil. In a large bowl combine the flour,

arrowroot, baking soda and ginger, stir in the currants. In a blender grind

the nuts to a fine powder, add the juice or water and blend for 20 seconds.

If the ingredients in the blender dont reach the one cup mark, add a little

more liquid. With the blender running low add the molasses and lemon juice or

vitamin C crystals. Pour the liquid mixture into the flour bowl, stir quickly

to blend, do not overmix. Transfer to the prepared mould or can. Cover with a

square of foil or wax parer; tie the wax paper securely with a piece of

string. Place the mould in the boiling water, cover the pot tightly and steam

for 2 hours over a medium low heat. Don't remove cover during this time.

Remove the mould from pot and cool for 15 minutes.
