Wheat Free Strawberry Walnut Bread

This is a simple bread to make and it tastes amazing.  It is a great, healthy bread that you can make and not feel bad about eating.  Berry season is coming and this is a great bread that can be made with any type of berry.

What you need:

3 cups of oat flour (made from whole oats ground in a food processor)
1 cup of sugar
1 tablespoon of baking powder
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
1 1/3 cup of egg whites
2 (10-ounce) packages of frozen strawberries, thawed, sliced (do not drain, the juice adds moisture to this bread)
1 cup of walnut pieces
2 teaspoons of Kroger Light Brown Sugar (for sprinkling on top of bread)

How to make it:

Preheat oven to 375 F.  Grease 2 loaf pans.  Stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and cinnamon in a large mixing bowl.  Combine eggs, strawberries and walnuts and add to dry ingredients.  Stir well.  Divide batter between loaf pans.  Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of the light brown sugar evenly over the top of each loaf.  Bake for approximately 30-45 minutes or until a tooth pick inserted in the center comes out clean.  You can also watch to see if the bread has pulled away from the sides of the pan during baking.  That also means its done.  Cool in loaf pans for about 10 minutes and then remove from pans and cool completely.  Serve plain, with fruit flavored cream cheese, or your favorite preserves.  Make a couple of these and stick in the freezer for those last minute guests.  Just thaw and serve (or if your like my husband, eat it frozen!).
