OMG. This is one of my favorite successful baking experiments of all time! I modified my lemon Greek yogurt muffin recipe and added cranberries to make this bread and it came out SO good.
It’s lightly sweet, tangy, and so satisfying. And a blender bread! Meaning you dump all the ingredients (minus the cranberries) in a blender, whip it up, and that’s literally it.
Because the batter is made in a blender, you can use whole oats which pretty much end up becoming oat flour in the process! If you don’t have a blender or food processor and still want to try this, you can just substitute one and a half cups of white or whole wheat flour.
The Stuff
- 2 cups old fashioned oats
- ¾ cup sugar
- ½ cup Greek yogurt
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- 2 eggs
- 2 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 tsp vanilla
- Zest and juice of 1 lemon (if making the glaze, save 2 tsp of lemon juice)
- 2 cups of cranberries (fresh or frozen)
- Optional: ~½ cup powdered sugar for glaze
The Steps
- Heat oven to 350 degrees
- Put all the ingredients except for the cranberries in a food processor and blend until very smooth
- Mix in the cranberries
- Transfer mixture into a greased 13×9 inch pan
- Bake for about 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean
- Optional: mix reserved lemon juice with powdered sugar and drizzle over muffins once cooled
Did you make it? I’d love to see how it turned out! Tag @bitebetanutrition on instagram.
