I really love baking quick breads. I think I may be loving it more than granola (gasp!). There’s just something a bit more satisfying baking an entire loaf of sweet soft quick bread. I always opt for a loaf of bread over baking muffins, scones, etc. I guess I just love baking. It is such a science and I love testing out new flour combos, flavors, textures. When it comes to gluten-free AND vegan baking, it sometimes becomes MAD science!Read More

There is something magic about banana breads. Even if you just add the smallest amount of mashed banana to a sweet quick bread, the results are just superb. No one will know it’s gluten-free and vegan. The bread is “risen”, fluffy, moist, durable, thick, delicious, perfect….um…it’s everything you’d want (without any of the scary things)!Read More

Normally I’d hold off on posting such a brand-spankin’ new recipe, but I received too many requests from drooling mouths to keep this one hidden! It has also come to my attention that National Banana Bread Day is coming up on the 16th, so I want you to have this banana bread recipe in your arsenal ready to go! I guess third, I’m just still pretty obsessed with this bread. There was major banana crushing 2 weeks ago in my kitchen!Read More

November’s Theme – Creative Quick Breads: The holiday baking season is upon us. And this month we’re going way beyond grandma’s banana bread. From sweet to savory and whole-grain to gluten-free, show us your new quick bread creation fresh from the oven. And if you have a tip for wrapping and giving your lovely loaf, please share that too! (Recipe ReDux)

I hope you like to bake, or at least, my recipes are making you want to at least try to like it! I’ve always said on this blog, from the very beginning, that I was not a baker, but a cook. I scoffed at baking and the lack of creativity and freewill it allowed. But that is just silly and I apologize to mocking the art of baking. Baking is much more a black and white science, but it is one that I am growing to love o so much. You might have realized this after the influx of baked goods showing up here on Strength and Sunshine, and I hope you’re prepared for a lot more! This is the season of baking and I feel it’s my duty to uphold that (even though I want to post recipes of than baked goods).Read More

Apple Pie Quick Bread

I love quick breads! They’re so easy to make; from the classics of banana, zucchini, or pumpkin bread, the flavor options are endless. So when I found myself with a nice batch of fresh homemade applesauce, an apple quick bread was the first thing that popped into my mind! I wanted to make something special with that applesauce and not just eat it all before I could actually “use” it!

I made a good decision with this bread and was able to use my applesauce in two ways. Directly in the bread and as that lovely topping you see running down the middle of the loaf. That topping was the inspiration for the whole bread. I thought of that before I even began baking. That led me to thinking of apple pie and how this bread reminded me of an apple pie.

If ya’ll remember though, I’m not the biggest fan of pie. Except for maybe this specific “pumpkin pie“, o and these “portable” pie bites. I really don’t like apple pie. I’ve never liked apples cooked and baked like that. The chunkiness of slimy apple cuts in an apple pie just has no appeal to me. So by using my applesauce, which is smooth and lovely, not slimy gelatinous chunks of apple, I fixed that problem. The smooth applesauce acted as part of my vegan “egg:, oil, and sweetener in the bread, and the lovely topping.

I also tried something new in this bread. A psyllium husk “egg”! I never used psyllium husk powder in my baking before, but so many vegan and gluten-free baker do, so I though I’d finally try it myself. Now it may be my favorite binder to use in baked goods! The psyllium worked wonders in the texture, hold, and crumb of this bread! The bread held up so well, was not soggy and sad, and was the perfect density! The trick with the powder though is mixing it with water the second before you put it in the actual batter you are making. Otherwise, it forms in to a thick ball that isn’t easily broken up if you aren’t using an electric mixer.

And will it (not) surprise you that I enjoyed this bread for breakfast? Okay, and at dinner, but it was so delicious! In my opinion this was gluten-free vegan quick bread perfection (my mom agreed as well). I think that’s enough for me to stick to breads and not pies. I haven’t even had my favorite pie in 2 or 3 years now, being away at school and all during the holidays. I do plan on making pie again, probably “redoing” the recipe a bit too. There’s plenty of pie-baking months ahead though, all in due time!

O I remembered something! Another pie I loved, my whole family loved, years ago was from Costco! They make the best pumpkin pies, but I think we also enjoyed the Entenmann’s pumpkin pie before we discovered Costco. Needless to say, never homemade, but needless to say now, always and forever homemade. Homemade by me 😉
