Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 1 cup Graham flour
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 1 cup Low-fat buttermilk
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, graham flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, unsweetened applesauce, low-fat buttermilk, egg, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet mixture into it. Gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter as this can make the bread dense.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, carefully turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve and enjoy your homemade low-fat graham bread either plain or with your favorite low-fat spread.
