Breakfast Bread

garimac

i am thinking of using this to make french toast with eggwhites.

Ingredients:
1-1/3 cups whole-grain wheat flour
3 tablespoons oat bran
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1-1/8 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
3 tablespoons non-fat yogurt
1/2 cup apple juice
1-1/8 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon olive oil
1-1/2 tablespoons honey
Two egg whites
3 tablespoons grated carrots
1-1/2 tablespoons carob chips
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350-degrees.
Sift together the wheat flour, oat bran, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and ginger. Set aside. (This can be done the night before and kept covered at room temperature.)

Mix the yogurt, apple juice, vanilla extract, oil, honey, egg whites and carrots in a separate bowl and blend together. Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Add the carob chips and fold together until blended. Do not over-mix, this will toughen the bread.

Spray two small loaf pans with non-stick spray and fill each pan 3/4 full with batter. Place on the center rack of the preheated oven and bake 45 minutes. The breads are done when a toothpick inserted into the center of a loaf comes out dry. Cool on a rack for 15 minutes. Slice each loaf into ten slices.

Recipe makes two small loaves.

This sounds so good! This would make a great after school snack as well.
Have you ever tried making it in a large loaf pan?
Thanks!

No but if you do you might need to adjust the cooking time, it migh take a little longer.
Just start checking it after 45 minutes and if not done check every 5 minutes.
Might also be good to do in muffin tins.
