Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup coconut oil, melted (or butter)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 cup applesauce
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups gluten-free all purpose flour (or regular flour)
  • 1 cup rolled oats (certified gluten-free)
  • 3/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg

*High Altitude Option (for 6,000-8,000 ft): Omit the baking powder and use only baking soda. Use quick oats instead of old-fashioned oats.

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 and line a loaf pan with parchment paper, leaving two edges sticking out to easily remove the baked bread with later.

  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together your coconut oil and brown sugar. Add in your applesauce, vanilla and almond milk and whisk again till all is well incorporated. Add your eggs and briefly blend in.

  3. To the same bowl, add your dry ingredients (flour, oats, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg) and stir everything together till you have a smooth bread batter.

  4. Pour into your loaf pan and bake in the oven for 50-60 minutes, or till the top of the bread is set and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

  5. Let your loaf cool entirely before removing and slicing. Devour!
