Description

With Dr. Oz stressing each time I turn him on about the goodness of this rather fatty green fruit, I thought I’d make something out of it other than the standard guacamole.


Ingredients

  • • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • • 1 teaspoon salt
  • • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • • 3 eggs
  • • 2 cups white sugar
  • • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • • 3 avocados mushed
  • • 1 tablespoon lemon zest

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven at 350 degrees F. Grease (2) 9 by 5-inch loaf pans.
  2. Sift together flour, baking powder, salt, spices and baking soda.
  3. In a large bowl, beat eggs until light and fluffy. Add sugar, and continue beating until well blended. Stir in oil, vanilla, mushed up avocado, orange zest. Stir in sifted ingredients. Pour into prepared loaf pans.
  4. Bake for 50 minutes, or until a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean. Remove loaves from pans and cool.
