Superfood Sweet Loaf!

August 26, 2015

Superfood bread 5

My superfood sweet loaf is a delicious concoction I came up with when we are really active during our soccer seasons.  We look for a little extra carbohydrates during these times and this sweet loaf is a great way to get them!  It is very dense, packed with nutrients, high in fiber and 100% whole wheat!

If you’re looking for something new to fuel you before races, boost you during your sports season, or just interested in something yummy to have with a hot cup of tea, this is it!

INGREDIENTS:

¼ cup walnuts, chopped
¼ cup almonds, chopped
4 carrots, grated
1 small apple, grated
¼ cup hemp seeds
¼ cup flax seeds
1 1/3 cup 100% whole wheat flour
¾ cup cane sugar
½ tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
¼ tsp sea salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
½ cup raisins
2 large eggs
½ cup safflower oil
½ tsp vanilla extract
1 Tbsp coconut oil

 

DIRECTIONS:

-Preheat oven to 350 degrees
-Chop walnuts and almonds (I used a food processor)
-finely grate carrots and apple and set aside (I saved the fiber from juicing).  This Breville 800JEXL Juicer is amazing!  It is extremely sturdy and is worth every penny.

Superfood bread 2
-In a large bowl whisk flour, sugar, hemp seeds, flax seeds, raisins, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon.
-In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, safflower oil, and vanilla extract

Superfood bread 1
-Fold the wet ingredients along with carrot/apple mixture into the flour mixture. (I actually had to kneed it with my hands)

Superfood bread 3
-Oil pan with 1 Tbsp of coconut oil so the loaf does not stick.  (OR you can make individual muffins)

Superfood bread 4
-Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a tooth pick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
-Leave on a wire rack to cool.
