This morning I made avocado bread. Not the toast spread with avocado which is so popular these days. This is an actual loaf of bread with mashed avocados as one of the main ingredients. It's quite good, very rich and moist and lightly sweet. I got the recipe from a friend of mine, and immediately bought two avocados, then waited until they ripened to soft. I couldn't quite imagine how this would taste, and it does, indeed, have an avocado flavor, which I happen to like. Here's the recipe:
2 C flour mixed with
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
2 very ripe avocados, mashed
3/4 C sugar
3 eggs
Oven to 350. Beat together the avocados, sugar, and eggs until well mixed. Fold in the dry ingredients. Bake for 1 hour in a greased or sprayed loaf pan.
Easy and good! It might also be good with chopped nuts added in.
