This quick bread is super easy and super delicious. Just throw it together in one bowl in about 10 minutes. The hard part is waiting the hour it takes to bake!
It's also super healthy with all those seeds and NO butter or oil.
If you want to make it even healthier with some extra protein, you could try subbing in some chickpea flour.
The Recipe
makes one loaf
1 tablespoon each of flaxseeds, chia seeds and poppyseeds
1/2 cup + 1 tablespoon sugar
3/4 cup milk (I used unsweetened almond milk)
1/4 cup + 3 tablespoons water
1/2 cup applesauce
1 tablespoon honey (or more according to taste)
1 teaspoon vanilla
zest and juice of one lemon (divided)
2 cups flour (I used half whole wheat and half chickpea flour)1 tablespoon honey (or more according to taste)
1 teaspoon vanilla
zest and juice of one lemon (divided)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)Mix all seeds with 3 tablespoons of water and let sit for a few minutes while preparing the pan.
Preheat oven to 350F degrees. Lightly oil or grease one standard loaf pan.
Add sugar, milk, rest of water, applesauce, vanilla and lemon zest. Add about 1/2 of the lemon juice. Blend well. Gently mix in the flour, baking powder and salt. Stir in the blueberries just until blended.
The batter should be moist, but not runny. If necessary, add a little more water. Pour batter into prepared pan and top with some more lemon juice and 1 tablespoon sugar. Bake for about one hour. Let cool before slicing and serving.
