Healthy Blueberry & Honey Loaf

J



Just whipped this up with my oldest. I love baking or cooking with the kids. They learn about healthy ingredients and hopefully enjoy making healthy things throughout their lives.  

Healthy Blueberry & Honey Loaf

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup low-fat greek yogurt
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 1/8 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup olive OR melted coconut oil
  • 1 cup blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees (F).
  2. Spray 2 loaf trays with cooking spray; set aside.
  3. In a large bowl whisk together flours, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon; set aside.
  4. In a medium bowl whisk together the yogurt, milk, vanilla, eggs, honey, and oil.
  5. Gently fold the yogurt mixture into the flour mixture, and using a spatula, fold until combined, being sure to mix just until all the flour disappears. Fold in blueberries.
  6. Divide the batter evenly between the two loaf pans, place pan in the oven, and bake for 18 minutes, reducing the heat to 375 degrees after 9 minutes of baking.
  7. Allow the loafs to cool for 5 minutes in the pan before carefully transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.
