I haven't tried this one yet, but it sounded so easy that even I, the one who hates to cook/bake, may even try it!

HONEY (AGAVE) HEALTH BREAD

2 1/2 cups SGWW flour
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons soy or rye flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 tsp salt, if desired
2 cups buttermilk
1/4 cup honey (USE AGAVE NECTAR)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1. In a large bowl, stir together the flours, baking soda and salt.

2. In a small bowl, combine the buttermilk, honey (agave), and vegetable oil. Add the liquid ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until the ingredients are just combined. Pour the batter into a well-greased 9x5x3-inch loaf pan or 2 miniloaf pans.

3. Bake the bread in a preheared 325 oven for 1 hour (45 to50 minutes for small loaves).

NOTE! When using agave nectar, generally you lower the temperature 25 degrees, so keep an eye on this if you try it with the agave nectar.
