- After soaking the raisins, drain the tea and tea bags from the bowl. Reserve 1/4 cup of tea which you will use!
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and grease a loaf pan with cooking spray and line it with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl combine the almond flour, tapioca flour, coconut flour, and baking powder. Mix until combined and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, coconut sugar, applesauce, 1/4 cup tea, and raisins. Whisk until combined.
- Pour the dry flour mixture into the wet ingredients and fold just until combined. Don't over mix!
- Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan and bake for 45 minutes.
- Let the loaf cool before slicing. This will allow the loaf to set and it will be much easier to cut. Enjoy!
