Introduction

Tried this out because I had extra avocados and figured why not :) Depending on my mood I will add a touch of chili powder or nutmeg to the dry ingredients. You can add a half of banana instead of the extra ½ avocado it will be a bit sweeter.

Ingredients

Serves: 6-8

1 large avocado
zest of 1 lime
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 large egg
3 cups soft light brown sugar
1 cup wholewheat flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 sprinkling of pumpkin seeds
2 tablespoons water

Oven preheated to 350ºF.

Grease a pan w/ butter and line with parchment paper.

Mash avocados as you would bananas.

You might try adding half a banana instead if you are not sure on the avocado taste.

Mix together with lime juice, zest and the sugar.

If you find it a bit dry add a couple tablespoons of water.

Add the dry ingredients and mix together well (will be a bit lumpy due to avocado so don't fret).

I have tired this with a touch of chili powder and added a nice dimension.

Pour into the pan and sprinkle the pumpkin seeds over top.

Bake for 45 min to an hour.
