Ingredients
- 1/3 cup Earth Balance (or butter)
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1/3 cup almond milk
- 1 can garbanzos, drained and rinsed
- 1 large banana, mashed
- heaping tablespoon peanut butter
- 2 cups wheat flour
- pinch salt
- 1-1/2 teas baking powder
- 1/2 teas baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- handful chocolate chips
Directions
-
In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream together the Earth Balance and maple syrup. A couple of minute should do.
-
Then add in the vanilla, almond milk, garbanzos, peanut butter, and banana. Mix on high with the paddle attachment until everything is smooth. 5 to 7 minutes.
-
In another bowl, whisk together the wheat flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
-
Add the dry ingredients to the wet. Mix until well moistened.
-
Fold in the chocolate chips.
-
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Then, lightly grease a bread pan (we used glass) and pour the mix inside.
-
Bake for 30 minutes, then check for done-ness. Then add another 10 to 15 minutes to the bake cycle and keep an eye on the bread so it doesn’t over-bake.
-
Bread is done when a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
