Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1.5 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.5 teaspoon fine salt
  • 0.75 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup ripe avocado, mashed about 2 medium avocados
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 0.25 cup neutral oil such as canola or light olive oil
  • 0.25 cup milk dairy or unsweetened almond milk
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 0.5 cup chocolate chips optional
  • 0.5 cup chopped walnuts optional

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and line with a parchment sling.
  • In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
  • In a separate bowl, mash the avocado until mostly smooth. Whisk in sugar, eggs, oil, milk, and vanilla until well blended.
  • Add dry ingredients to the wet mixture and fold just until no dry streaks remain. If using, fold in chocolate chips or walnuts.
  • Scrape batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Tent with foil after 40 minutes if browning quickly.
  • Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then lift out to a rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

Store tightly wrapped at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze slices for up to 2 months. For a citrus twist, add 1 teaspoon grated lime zest to the batter.
