I’m glad you guys enjoyed the photos from the beautiful weekend here in D.C.! They were actually all taken with my little point and shoot — check out this post for my tips for taking better point and shoot photos.

This week is going to be insane getting ready for the big move — I spent all day yesterday with my mom running errands and sorting through my clothes. I literally got rid of nearly half of them! The damage:

  • 5 huge trash bags (for Goodwill)
  • 1 huge trash bag (for the trash)
  • 4 huge shopping bags (to sell)

Sweet! I always feel so productive cleaning out my room and getting rid of stuff I don’t need. On the docket today is getting my car serviced, getting a Tb vaccine shot, sorting through old papers, and starting to PACK!

But for now — a new recipe!

  • This looks great! I've been on a blueberry kick this summer, so this fits right in. Way to go getting rid of so much stuff. I need to go through my clothes and set some aside for donations. It's such an undertaking!

  • Yum! That looks delicious...definitely one to add to the list of things I have to make :)

  • That seriously looks amazing! Good luck with the move!

  • Looks delicious! I'm definitely making that this week. Can you substitute regular/whole wheat flour for the spelt flour?
    Reply
    • Hmmm... I'd recommend trying Whole Wheat PASTRY flour instead of regular - it has a softer texture! Let me know how it turns out :)

  • New recipe looks awesome! And it's such a great feeling to get organized - changes my whole outlook on life when I'm de-cluttered. :)

  • Looks delish! I second that about the post-clothing-purge feeling of freedom. I have to clean out and giveaway clothes at least a couple times a year - it feels SO good to pare down my closet and get rid of the silly things that just sit there looking bored.

  • I love getting rid of old stuff, makes more to buy new clothes!

  • This looks super moist and delicious! When is your big move? Mine is this coming weekend! I have been packing kitchen boxes all day long, it seems. It's really cool to move to a new city. It feels like a fresh start, even though it is just another chapter in life. :)

    • I move on Tuesday! It's going to be crazy since I'll be in Chicago for the Healthy Living Summit from Friday morning-Sunday night. Gah! Good luck with your move, too! :)

  • This bread looks so tasty, I'm tempted to go buy plain yogurt right now so I can make some this afternoon!
    Reply
  • Sounds like you have made a lot of progress! Good luck with the packing. Oh, I made your Almond Butter Banana Breakfast Bars this weekend and they were EXCELLENT!! Thanks for sharing!

  • I have a HUGE container of European Style Yogurt - which, as it turns out, does NOT taste like Greek Yogurt. Or any other "tasty" yogurt, for that matter. Gross - that needs to be used ASAP! In other words, I'm happy that you've posted yet another delicious recipe that I want to try, and also happens to require yogurt. Whoop! ;) good luck with the packing!! SEE YOU FRIDAY!

  • That looks really yummy!
    Reply
  • Yum! That looks appropriately fANNEtastic. I hope all the packing is going well... I'm impressed with your organization. Might inspire me to do a mini closet clean-out of my own :-) Looking forward to meeting you SOON!

  • I just made this loaf it was SOOO GOOD!! Yum. I topped mine with pumpkin seeds and coconut
    Reply
  • How many servings do you think come out in a loaf?
    Reply
    • I'd say about 10 to 12 :)
      Reply
  • Wow. You were productive in cleaning out your closet!! I still need to do that with mine! The bread looks so good! I can almost taste it now! have fun at HLS!
    Reply
  • Looks so good! Quick question: Can I sub whole wheat for the spelt flour? Why do you use spelt flour in this recipe? :-)
    Reply
    • I used spelt flour because it's awesome! I'd recommend picking some up. It has a really nice, doughy texture and is very nutritious. You can use whole wheat flour if you want, but it might make the bread a lot more dense. Maybe try whole wheat pastry flour instead.

  • I can't wait to make this beautiful bread tomorrow. I love everything in it.
    Reply
  • I made this this weekend--delicious! I had a slice for breakfast and it was perfect--not too sweet and very moist.

  • I just made this bread tonight. Mmmm... it is so good! Dare I say it... fANNEtastic!

  • I've been looking for a healthy lemon loaf recipe, but I couldn't find one, so I used this recipe but I excluded the cinnamon and blueberries and added 2 T lemon zest and 2 T lemon juice instead! I also used vanilla soy milk instead of skim, and topped it off with chia seeds. It came out PERFECT. Just how I wanted! The spelt, yogurt, and applesauce made it soo chewy and delicious. It is darker than a regular lemon loaf because of the brown sugar, but tastes the same, and so much healthier. Thanks!! :)
    Reply
    • Yum - lemon and zest sound like a delicious addition! So glad you enjoyed it :)

  • How quickly do you go through one of these loaves? I think I have a bit of a will-power control problem..... I ate about 1/3 of this loaf in one day. I think the idea that it is healthier than other cakey breads makes me somehow think that it is okay to eat it all at once.... hahah help!! I must stop doing that /:
    Reply
    • I'd recommend freezing half right away and then savoring the rest slowly :) Even if it's healthy, the calories will still add up of course! I'd limit it to one thick slice per day :)
