Servings: 12 - 16 slices
- 1 1/2 cups mashed ripe banana (for banana-free, try this Blueberry Bread)
- 1/2 cup pure maple syrup or honey, or agave
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/4 cup oil or additional water
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups flour (spelt, white, or oat flour)
- 1/2 cup protein powder or additional flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 3/4 tsp baking powder
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp cardamom (optional)
- 1 cup blueberries (fresh or thawed frozen)
Preheat your oven to 350 F. Grease a 9×5 pan, and set aside. In a large bowl, whisk first five ingredients. Stir in all remaining ingredients except blueberries until just evenly mixed. Very gently fold in the berries so they do not burst. Smooth batter into the pan. Bake on the center rack for 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean. Let cool completely. If you can wait, I recommend loosely covering with a cloth towel and refrigerating overnight. The taste and texture are even better the next day!View Nutrition Facts
