A healthy breakfast. These aren’t waffles, but I think I’d still offer them to Steph.

I’m sure she’ll appreciate them anyway. I think I’ll whip up a batch for Damian. The boy could stand to start his day with a smile.

Whole Grain Cinnamon Apple Oatmeal Bread

Yields two 4” x 8” loaves

Ingredients:

• Bread:
• 1 cup (130 grams) whole wheat flour or spelt flour
• 1/4 cup (20 grams) oat flour*
• 1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 1/8 (100 grams) cup traditional oats or rolled oats
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup (160 grams) honey
• 1/4 cup (60ml) olive oil (not extra-virgin) or canola oil
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• 1/4 cup (60ml) apple juice or milk
• 2 cups (220 grams) chopped apples
• Streusel:
• 6 tablespoons whole wheat or spelt flour
• 6 tablespoons coconut sugar or brown sugar
• 4 tablespoons coconut oil or normal butter, softened
• 2 tablespoons oats
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon

* To make oat flour, grind 20 grams of oats in a coffee grinder or a food processor.

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 325°F / 162°C. Prepare two 4” x 8” loaf pans by lining them with a piece of parchment paper. You could use baking spray, but I think it’s easier when you have streusel to just lift the loaves out of the pan.
2. Prepare the streusel by combining everything together in a small bowl. I used a fork. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl, sift together the the dry ingredients (through oats).
4. In a medium bowl, whisk together the rest of the ingredients except for the apples.
5. Add the flour mixture to the wet mixture and stir just until combined. Fold in the apples.
6. Divide the batter among the two pans, sprinkle on the streusel, and bake for about 28 - 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. A little sticky is okay, but not wet.
7. Let the bread cool in their pans for 10 minutes and then let cool on a wire rack.

Secret (Vegan!) Peanut Butter Cookies from ChocolateCoveredKatie.com

• 1/2 cup peanut butter (mine has salt), or another nut butter
• 3/4 tsp baking soda
• 3 tbsp whole-wheat pastry flour (or white or a GF mix)
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 2 tbsp brown sugar or coconut sugar
• 2 tbsp applesauce
• 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
• Optional pinch of salt

Mix dry ingredients very well. Then add wet and form cookie balls. If you want soft cookies, fridge the dough for at least an hour. Then bake in a preheated oven (350F) for 8 minutes. They’ll look underdone when you take them out, but that’s ok. Let cool for at least 5 minutes before removing from tray.

Recipe makes anywhere from 15-22 cookies, depending on size.
