Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 ripe avocadoes, mashed
  • 1 1/3 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup buttermilk
  • 1/3 cup chopped almonds
  • 1/3 cup dried cranberries
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F. Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan. Sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, cream together the sugar and butter until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the mashed avocado. Stir in the dry ingredients alternating with the buttermilk until just mixed. Fold in the chopped almonds and cranberries.
  • Bake in loaf pan in preheated oven for 50 min to an hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the loaf comes out clean. Let cake sit for at least 15 minutes before serving. Reheat in the oven if you wish to serve it warm.
