Ingredients
 

  • 3 large eggs, room temperature
  • cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt, (82g)
  • cup pure maple syrup
  • ¼ cup lemon juice, ~1 large lemon
  • 2 Tbsp unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • cup melted coconut oil, cooled to room temperature
  • 1 cup oat flour, (125g) spooned and leveled *
  • 1 cup white whole wheat flour, (150g) spooned and leveled
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp baking soda
  • 2 tbsp lemon zest, ~ about 2 - 3 lemons
  • 1 cup blackberries, about 6 ounces, cut in half and patted dry
  • 1 tbsp white whole wheat flour or oat flour

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and line a bread tin with parchment paper.
  • Zest your lemons and set them to the side.
  • If your blackberries are large, cut them in half or into thirds (like little discs). Then. lie them out on a paper towel and gently pat dry. It is very important that they are dry.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, Greek yogurt, maple syrup, coconut oil, lemon juice, almond milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Gently fold in the oat flour, white whole wheat flour, baking powder, and baking soda with a spatula.
  • Mix the blackberries with 1 Tablespoon extra of flour in a medium bowl. Then, gently fold in the lemon zest and blackberries and evenly pour into the lined bread tin.
  • Bake for 45 - 55 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Let it cool before cutting in and enjoy!

Notes

Coconut Oil: You can substitute 1:1 with melted and cooled butter.
Almond Milk: Substitute with cashew milk, 1% regular milk, or 2% regular milk
Maple Syrup: I have not tested this, but honey should work in place of maple syrup.
Oat Flour: I do not recommend homemade oat flour for this recipe, but you can if you measure it in grams 
White Whole Wheat Flour: I have not tested this, but regular whole wheat flour should work 1:1.
Blackberries: You can substitute with blueberries.
Storing: Store extras at room temperature for 3 -4 days or in the fridge by covering the original loaf tin with aluminum foil or placing the loaf into an airtight container.
Freezing: Make the loaf as directed, let it cool, then add individual slices to freezer-safe bags, and freeze them for up to 3 months. When you are ready to eat them, let them defrost in the refrigerator overnight so they are ready to enjoy in the morning.
