Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 large Ripe avocados
- 2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 0.5 cup Plain Greek yogurt
- 0.5 cup Walnuts
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.
Cut the ripe avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl. Mash them well with a fork until smooth and set aside.
In a separate large bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, rolled oats, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In the bowl with the mashed avocados, add the eggs, honey, Greek yogurt, and vanilla extract. Whisk until all the wet ingredients are well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and gently mix with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the chopped walnuts and chia seeds until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Spoon the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with the back of the spoon.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, slice and serve your Heart-Healthy Avocado Bread Delight. Enjoy!
