Organic Banana and blueberry bread



Serving Size Makes 1 loaf

Ingredients
1 1/2 cups organic wholemeal self-raising flour or spelt flour
1/2 cup wheat germ
1/2 cup protein powder or skim milk powder
1 tsp. cinnamon
Rind from 1 orange
2 tsp. vanilla extract
2 large mashed bananas = 1 cup
4 egg whites
1/2 cup maple syrup
250 g fresh or frozen blueberries
1/2 cup chopped dried apricots

Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine flour, wheat germ, protein powder, and cinnamon. In a separate bowl, combine mashed bananas with the orange rind, vanilla, egg whites and maple syrup. Pour mashed banana mix into the flours and mix though until combined. Fold in blueberries and apricots. Pour into a loaf tin lined with baking paper and bake for about 50 minutes on 175 C. Cover with foil if necessary half way through cooking to stop over browning. Remove bread from the oven and cool. This is great alone or topped with sliced bananas and blueberries with a drizzle of honey for breakfast. Also try it toasted the next day and spread with low fat cottage cheese and a drizzle of honey or rice syrup.
