I came back home inspired to bake.

Also to clear out my freezer, but mostly to bake.

I’m READY FOR FALL, and I had some old applesauce I made over the summer to clear out of the freezer.

So this Paleo Applesauce Snack Bread was born. My favorite way to eat it? Make a snack sammie with Georgia Grinder’s cashew butter and more Wildways vanilla bean espresso granola for an afternoon snack, eaten in between gulps of cold almond milk.

Ahhh.

Paleo Applesauce Snack Bread 

Paleo, grain free, dairy free | prep time: 10-15 minutes | cook time: 35-40 minutes minutes

 Ingredients:

• 1 egg

• 1 cup applesauce (I made my own with fresh apples, collagen, vanilla extract, and cinnamon but you can buy a no-sugar added one!)

• ¼ cup unsweetened almond milk (or df milk of choice)

• ¼ cup avocado oil

• 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional; the bread won’t be very sweet without it)

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• ¾ cup Otto's Naturals Cassava flour

• 1 packet Wildways cinnamon roll grain free hot cereal (you can use some more cassava flour instead of this)

• 2 tbsp chia seeds

• ½ tsp baking soda

• ½ tsp baking powder

• 1 tsp cinnamon

• Pinch of sea salt

• 4 scoops collagen

• 2 scoops Ancient Nutrition Keto Cocoa powder*

• ½ cup goji berries

• ½ cup walnuts, divided

• ¼ cup Wildways vanilla bean espresso grain free granola for topping

*Note: You can omit this and use more sweetener of choice because this contains stevia, a little collagen, and some adaptogens along with cocoa, which is what makes it sweet (and supplemental).
