Ingredients:- ¼ cup oil (melted coconut, light olive oil, avocado, vegetable, melted butter)
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup (3.75 ounces) granulated sugar
- ¼ cup (3.75 ounces) light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup buttermilk or sour cream
- 1 cup cinnamon applesauce (if using no sugar applesauce, add ¼ c sugar)
- 1 ¾ cup (8.75 ounces) whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Directions:
-
Preheat the oven to 350° F and lightly grease a 9X5-inch loaf pan (line the bottom with parchment - optional, but helps prevent the bottom of the loaf from sticking).
-
In a large bowl, whisk together the oil and eggs until well combined.
-
Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, vanilla, buttermilk and applesauce and mix until well-combined.
-
Add the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg and stir until combined; a few lumps are ok (don't overmix - treat it like a good muffin batter that gets combined but not obliterated by mixing).
-
Pour the batter into the loaf pan and spread evenly.
-
Bake for 45-60 minutes (ovens will vary on exact time) until the top springs back lightly to the touch and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs but not wet batter.
-
Let cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes before turning out onto a cooling rack.
-
Serve with butter or honey butter
