Best Low Fat Vegan Bread .

Weekend baking is a ritual in my house. This morning I was craving a savory bread, so I have not really  added much sweeteners to this loaf. The subtle taste of sweetness in it, comes from the apple sauce and mashed banana. It is insanely moist without the fat !! I've  baked this bread at 415 for 20 min to give it that golden reddish crust then I've reduced the heat to 375 and continued baking for about 20-30 minutes. You can top it with peanuts butter, vegan butter and maple syrup,, the list goes on .. I've topped mine with my zero fat pumpkin butter. Enjoy and let me know how it turned out :)

Dry mix:

• 2 cup Whole wheat flour
• 1 tbs baking powder
• 2tbs flax meal
• dash of salt
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon

Wet mix:

• 1/4 cup canola oil
• 3/4 cup mashed ripe banana
• 3/4 mashed unsweetened apple sauce
• 1 tsp vanilla 
• 1 1/4 cup soy milk or almond milk
• 1 tbs chia seeds
• 2 tbs maple or agave syrup.

Method:

Preheat the oven to 415

Grease 8x5 inch loaf pan with a baking spray.

Combine the dry ingredients all together, flour, baking powder, flax meal, cinnamon and salt.

In a separate bowl mix the wet ingredients. Whisk them well until everything is incorporated into a smooth puree.

Fold the dry mix into the wet puree gradually until you reach a consistency of a smooth batter.

Pour batter into the greased pan and back on the centre rack initially for 20 min at 415 then reduce heat to 375 and continue baking for 20-30 min or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.

Let the bread cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing.
