As a child I always loved when my grandmother made her date nut bread...This recipe comes a very close second in favorite recipes from Grammie...However, Grammie didn't know about the food pyramid or healthy eating...I've adapted many of her recipes to include healthier ingredients and this is one of them
Ingredients:
3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup wheat bran
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/3 cup dates, chopped
1/4 cup egg substitute (egg beaters)
1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup 1% low-fat milk
1 cup apple, peeled & grated
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
2. In a lg bowl combine the whole wheat and all purpose flours, bran, baking powder, baking soda and cinnamon. Stir in the dates.
3. In another bowl, beat the egg substitute with sugar and oil until well mixed, then stir in the milk and apple.
4. Pour into the flour mixture and stir just enough to moisten, being careful not to overmix.
5. Spoon into nonstick or paper-lined medium muffin tins, filling almost to the top.
6. Bake in the preheated 375°F oven for about 20 minute or until firm to the touch.
