Scrumptiously moist and delicious, sweet and spicy, simple and wholesome: contains no refined grains or sugars, just lots of good stuff like raisins, honey, and wheat germ. You've got to try this bread! Ingredients:
1/2 cup melted butter |
1/3-1/2 cup honey |
2 eggs |
1 cup unsweetened applesauce |
1 teaspoon maple extract (optional) |
1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour |
1/2 cup wheat germ |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/2 cup raisins or 1/2 cup currants |
Directions:
1. Beat butter and honey together in mixing bowl.
2. Add eggs, applesauce, and maple extract (if using) and beat well.
3. Combine next six ingredients (flour through nutmeg) in separate bowl; stir in raisins.
4. Add dry ingredients to butter mixture, stirring until combined.
5. Bake in greased 5x9 loaf pan at 350 degrees for 55-60 minutes, or until tests done.
6. Cool in pan for 30 minutes, then remove from pan and cool completely on wire rack; wrap in plastic wrap and chill overnight before serving.
7. This bread freezes well, so double the recipe and save one for later!
