I have loads of these Goodies to post and they are just piling up in my folder, I just made this 2 days back, when my H forgot to get bread for my children, as they take only sandwiches I was quite upset, especially my son gets very hungry and if he doesn't eat at right time, he ends up having headaches :(, as I myself wasn't feeling well, I was really not upto make anything, After 3 long years (except when I go to India) I went to a resturant and had some food and some chat!!, which didnt seem to help me in any way, I had a tummy upset and I was quite tired. The whole day I had just yogurt and in the evening I ate some rice with yogurt again!!, coming back to my recipe I made myself up and decided I will bake something for my kids with what I have in hand, I saw 2 apples and thought of using them up, that is when I started searching for a recipe and I ended up here, like I have found gold, I started digging through her recipe Index and this caught my attention!!, I thought this was quite an interesting recipe and absolutely healthy one too, I had walnuts and Flaxseed too!!, how good is that!!, I was so happy, This lady has such a wonderful recipe collection and her write was very interesting too., with a carefree attitude with her cooking and writing and beautiful clicks, she mesmerized me, such an young talented and gifted, spirited person she is!!, Thanks Joy wilson I had such a Joy in baking this bread with your culinary skills.., Only thing is I tweaked it a little bit by making it Eggless, If you want to use eggs check out the recipe here.

EGGLESS APPLE, WALNUTS AND FLAXSEED BREAD
INGREDIENTS:
1 Cup All purpose Flour
3/4 Cup whole wheat flour
3/4 Cup Brown Sugar packed (I used Demerara granulated sugar)
2 tsp Baking Powder ( I used 1 tsp Baking Powder)
1 tsp Baking soda ( I used 2tsp Baking soda)
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp Ground Cinnamon
1 tsp Nutmeg
2/3 Butter milk ( I used the milk which was in the process of becoming yogurt!!, halfway through!!)
1/3 cup Unsalted butter ( I used less than 1/4 cup may be 4 to 5 tbsp of canola oil)
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 Large eggs ( I omitted)
1 tbsp Flax seed Powder
1 cup Grated Apple ( I used 1 cup apple puree from 3 Apples as shown in pic)
1/2 coarsely chopped walnuts
4 tbsp of Maple syrup
METHOD:
Preheat the oven to 350 degree Farenheit, then line a baking loaf tin and keep aside.
I first sifted all the Dry ingredients the two flours, BP, BS, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg powder together and kept them ready
Then I peeled the skin of the apples cut them into segments and microwaved them for a minute and let them to cool.
Then in a mixie I gave a quick grinding to the apples and made them into a puree, to this I added flaxseed powder, buttermilk, canola and maple syrup for a few minutes so they all combined well together.
I took this into a large bowl, added sugar and vanilla essence and whisked well until they blended well with the help of a hand whisk.
To this I started adding flour little by little until everything was together, to this I added chopped walnuts, I did not use any water as the batter was perfect, If it is dry try adding little water at a time, so it resembles the cake consistency.
Then pour this mixture into the prepared tin and bake it for 30 to 35 minutes or as always insert a tooth pick and check out if it done, that is the tooth pick comes out clean, This means your bread is done!!
Viola!! you have your lovely bread
My Verdict: The cake was a hit, my kids just loved it and promise it didn't really last long!!, It got over already, I baked it on Sunday night and it is tuesday today and is nothing left!!
The best moist, soft cake I ever baked, I think, it is a keeper, best of all kids had a very healthy food to consume!!
Look at the texture of the cake , it was perfect................
Look how perfectly I could slice the loaves, isn't it Gorgeous.......
Here's one last look at my awesome Bread, for a healthy heart!!!
Hoping you all so will go nuts with this bread.... (just kidding!!, as my daughter says!!)..love you all, take care, c u soon.............
I would like to send this to Mharo Rajasthan's CWS- Event, Flax seeds, being my favourite and I use it in loads of my dishes, who is guest hosting Priya's Event.
