Dr. Adame's Apple Orange Mini-Loaves

Apples and Oranges actually go great together in baked goods!

These vegan, delicious apple orange mini-loaves make the most of the local apple harvest.

Recipe below. And as always, keep in mind Dr. Adame is not chef or recipe writer. She wings it quite a bit!

Apple Orange Mini-Loaves

Ingredients:

WET INGREDIENTS

• 2 small apples, finely shredded, with the peel.

• Do not remove the peel, so much fiber in there!

• Dr. Adame used Fuji Apples from our neighbor Shining Waters Farm

• Zest and Juice of 1 Large Orange or several small oranges

• Zest and juice of 1 Lime

• About 1/2 Cup Maple Syrup

• Squirt of Mexican Vanilla (yes, its better!)

DRY INGREDIENTS

• 2 Cups AP flour (you can also use whole wheat)

• 1/4 Cup Ground Flax Seed

• 1/2 Cup Elements Truffles Protein Powder (any flavor, Dr. Adame used the Peanut Butter flavor for this recipe, but any of them will work)

• Pinch of Kosher Salt

• 1 Teaspoon Baking Soda

• Sprinkle a mix of ginger, cinnamon, and nutmeg

• Optional: Top with Bizcochito New Mexico Spice Blend

Instructions:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees

• Grease a pan of 8 mini-loaves. Dr. Adame uses Miyokos Vegan Oatmilk Butter.

• Mix all the wet ingredients together.

• Mix all the dry ingredients together (except Bizcochito Spice Blend), and then add to the wet ingredients.

• Mix until well incorporated, but do not over mix. Overmixing leads to gummy batter.

• Spoon the batter into the mini loaf pan.

• Sprinkle the Bizcochito Spice Blend (or your favorite sweet spice blend) on top of the mini loaves.

• Bake for 25 minutes, until knife or toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the center of a mini-loaf.

• Remove from oven and immediately place in cooling rack.
