Lower in sugar and higher in fiber than most traditional quick breads, this recipe calls for avocados in place of butter or oil and a mixture of whole wheat flour and all-purpose flour. Blueberries and strawberries lend their natural sweetness, cutting back on added sugar.

Extend the life of fresh berries!

Berries tend to have a short shelf life. Raspberries and blackberries, for example, should be used within 2-3 days after bringing them home from the grocery store. If your berries are softening and nearing the end of their life, they can still be used to make this quick bread and jam. What a great way to combat food waste!

Ingredients 

Bread

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup cane sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 large Naturipe Avocado flesh scooped out and mashed until smooth
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 cup whole milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup fresh Naturipe Blueberries
  • 1/2 cup fresh Naturipe Strawberries hulled and cut into large dice

Jam

  • 1 cup fresh Naturipe Blackberries
  • 1 cup fresh Naturipe Raspberries
  • 2 cups fresh Naturipe Strawberries hulled and cut into chunks
  • 2 tbsp cane sugar
  • 1/2 tsp lemon juice

Instructions 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine flours, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, mash together avocado and lemon juice. Add egg, milk and vanilla and mix until combined and free of lumps.
  • Pour the wet mixture over the dry mixture and gently mix until just combined and free of lumps. Gently fold in the blueberries and strawberries.
  • Transfer mixture to a greased loaf pan and bake for 55-65 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the jam. Combine berries in a large saucepan set over medium heat. Bring to a boil, mashing berries with a wooden spoon. Add lemon juice and continue to boil for 1 minute. Add sugar and cook, stirring constantly, until jam thickens enough to coat the spoon. Remove from heat and transfer to a dish to cool. Jam will continue to thicken as it cools, about 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
  • Remove bread from the oven and test the center for doneness with a toothpick. Let cool in pan for 10-15 minutes, then remove from pan to cool on a wire rack, another 30 minutes.
  • Once bread and jam are cooled, slice bread and serve with jam.
