Raisins, Wanuts, and Flax oh my!


For those of you who requested the recipe for my raisin walnut loaf I posted on my Facebook yesterday, here it is!

2 cups whole wheat flour
1 1/2 cups of sugar
3 1/4 tsp. baking powder
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. salt
3 eggs, room temperature
2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup of raisins
3/4 toasted walnuts
3 tbsp. flax seeds

In a bowl mix flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. No need to sift, just fluff all ingredients with a fork.

In a separate bowl beat room temperature eggs until they are light yellow. To that, add vanilla, sugar, and vegetable oil. Stir until well combined.

Add dry to wet, mix just enough, then fold in walnuts, raisins, and flax seeds. Do not over mix!

Pour into 2 loaf pans, muffin tins, or a 13 x 9... whatever you have! Make sure you grease them!

Bake at 350F for 45 minutes or until a knife or pick comes out clean.

An electric mixer is not needed here, that why I love it! Quick and easy.
