applesauce oat bread (vegan + oil free)

 

there are some days where i'm just absolutely obsessed with and constantly craving oatmeal, oatmeal cookies (no raisins please), and granola bars. so weird, i know, but this oat loaf pretty much hits that spot as well. it's best sliced and toasted, with a drizzle of honey and some hemp seeds...

this recipe does not require any flour - just oat flour (which you can make on your own by blending oats) and rolled oats. 

ingredients

2 cups oat flour
.5 cup rolled oats
2 tsp baking powder
.5 tsp baking soda
2 tsp cinnamon
1.5 cups apple sauce 
.5 cup honey (maple syrup works too)
1/3 cup milk of choice

instructions:

1. preheat oven to 350F.
2. mix dry ingredients in a larger bowl.
3. add wet ingredients to the dry, and mix thoroughly.
4. line a loaf pan and bake for 45-50 minutes, using the toothpick test.
5. cool, slice, and toast!

if you eat it cooled right out of the oven, it has a bit chewier texture than if you were to toast it again before enjoying. both ways, though, are still fiya.
