blueberry & oat loaf | recipe

This Blueberry & Oat Loaf has gone straight to the top of my favourites list! And because it has ingredients like oats, yoghurt and chia seeds, and is refined sugar-free, a slice or two could definitely pass as breakfast!

Ingredients:

• 1 cup wholemeal plain flour
• 1/2 cup oats
• 1 tbs chia seeds
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 2 eggs
• 1 over-ripe banana
• 1 cup plain yoghurt
• 1/3 cup coconut oil, melted
• 2 tbs maple syrup
• 1 tbs vanilla essence
• 1 cup blueberries (frozen or fresh)

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 170 degrees, and grease a loaf tin
2. In a large bowl, add the dry ingredients and stir until combined
3. In a separate bowl, mash the banana with a fork
4. Add the remaining wet ingredients (excluding blueberries) to the banana and mix well
5. Add the wet ingredients to the dry, and gently stir until just combined
6. Fold in blueberries
7. Pour into loaf tin, and bake for approximately 50-55 minutes or until skewer comes out clean
