Avocado bread recipe

This happens so rarely that I decided to create a section on the blog for my delicious creative cooking.

I am an awful cook because I don't have patient and if I'm not inspired to do something I'm better off eating take away. I'm also conscious about my food and would like to eat more healthy, so take away is not always the best option. But then...I usually "spend my days at the end of my money" and end up with a lot of random leftovers that I am bored of just before payday.

This time I had some avocados, red pesto, green olives, eggs and some pumpkin seeds, I mixed all this with butter, flour, a bit of pepper and oregano and voila! A delicious, healthy, very nourishing bread that's perfect to start your day.

avocado bread recipe

Time:
1 hour (including oven baking)

Ingredients:
creative: 2 avocados, 4 tea spoons of red pesto, a jar of olives (black or green), some pumpkin seeds, pepper and oregano
basics: 2 eggs, 200 gr. of butter, 250 gr. of flour, a tea spoon of baking soda

How it's done:
Turn the avocados into a paste as much as you can squish them and then mix them with the pesto. Add the two eggs (whites and yolks) and make sure you mix them as if you were preparing an omelette. When everything is homogeneous add the butter (make sure it's a bit melted) and make sure it's blended well into the composition.

Now add the flour and the baking soda. It will seem as if the compositions breaks, but don't worry. Keep steering until everything is really well mixed. Start adding the pumpkin seeds, the sliced olives, the pepper and the oregano. 

Heat the oven before for 10 minutes at 170 degrees (mine is electric). Put everything in a bread tray, or you can use a muffin tray if you want. Keep the oven at 170 degrees. They should be ready in about 45 minutes, but make sure you check on them because not all ovens are the same.

Tip!
Test if it's ready by sticking a toothpick right in the middle of the bread....if you pull it out and nothing sticks...it is ready for you to enjoy!
