Start your day right with this delicious Rasberry Oatmeal Bread. Perfect for those “on the go” mornings, snacking at school or a quick bite at the office. This bread is also definitive proof that healthy doesn’t have to be boring. Even with whole wheat flour which I’m not a big fan of when I bake, (I know it’s childish but I find it blahh…and dry…and can I mention blahh again?) But here the flour adds a really nice nutty flavor and with the addition of unsweetened apple sauce the whole thing becomes insanely moist (and also lower in fat because you don’t need to add as much oil as you would without it!)
Sometimes I like to spread peanut butter or jam on it to make it extra special! Yum…
Happy snacking!

What a wonderful recipe! Our family can’t stop eating it! I used cane sugar and it was fantastic. Next time I am going to split the whole wheat flour with oat flour. This will be in high rotation around here.

Thank you so much Jamie for taking the time to comment. What a great idea to split the flour with oat flour, I will have to try it too!
