Blog#63--Because Nom: Healthiest Banana-Carrot Bread--

So I tried making a healthy recipe. I'm in the process of making it now, and I'll post the blog as soon as it's finished. So it's a banana-carrot bread. I will NOT put any sugar, no aspartame, no substitute like that. I will sweeten with a bit of brown sugar, honey and the fructose that's in the carrots and banana. Also, chocolate chips, because nom. So this is what it is:

Preheat oven to 350F

in a bowl:
1 cup of flour
1 tsp of baking powder
1 and a half tsp of baking soda
1/4 cup of cocoa powder (because nom)
pinch of salt
1 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp cinnamon

in other bowl:
1 egg
1 tsp of vanilla
3 bananas (pureed) its better if they're like brownish black or from your freezer
one carrot (good size there) grated
some honey like a large squirt from the bottle or like 2 tbps (I approximated)
3-4 tbps of brown sugar
a little bit of canola oil (like just to make it glisten, because we need the fat)

Mix all together after mixed seperately, then add:
a bit of chocolate chips
nuts (not peanuts, but like... hazelnuts or macademia)

Bake for 45-60 mins, checking it because it really depends on the oven. As said above, this is at 350F, must be preheated. Enjoy!!! It was good! I made it and it's really yummy!!
Feel free to sweeten any recipe with sweetened or unsweetened apple sauce, or even mashed pineapple. Fruits are sooo sweet and and perfect for sugar replacement. If you do put these, you can even cut on the oil.

Character of the Day:
Thaddeus Viola-Penza

Appearances: Nothing yet, borne circa 3550.
Bio: Thaddeus is the first son of Brutus and Elia, who ends up being Née Vampire. Thaddeus grows up extremely slowly, being a Vampire since his birth, but pushing out the growth of his body nonetheless. Thaddeus is a writer, a poet, playright and he is interested in the forbidden. He seeks knowledge of other worlds and speaks to all who have been to the Udacorra to write epic poetry for the populace. He researches books from the old world and starts to replace Drummond Marble's job of keeping track of history. Thaddeus writes numerous encyclopaedias, dictionaries for Daemonic and New English, and learns topography and re-works the map of the world. Thaddeus has a wonderful connection with his (great)-great-grand Mother, Finna, who tells him everything she knows, because she is the only one who still remembers the Norse time (apart from Prince, who is not very talkative these days).
