Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
- 0.5 cups Almond flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Ground cardamom
- 1 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cloves
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.75 cups Unsweetened applesauce
- 0.5 cups Honey
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Almond milk (or other milk of choice)
- 0.5 cups Chopped nuts (optional, e.g., walnuts or pecans)
- 0.5 cups Raisins or dried cranberries (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, cloves, and nutmeg. Set aside.
In a large bowl, lightly beat the eggs. Add the applesauce, honey, vanilla extract, and almond milk. Whisk until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring just until combined. If using, fold in the chopped nuts and raisins (or dried cranberries) at this stage.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
Bake for 45-50 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 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve as is or with a spread of almond butter or honey on top. Enjoy!
