Ingredients
- 1–1/3 cups oat flour (you can grind from rolled oats in blender or food processor)
- 1 cup chickpea flour
- 2–1/4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1–1/4 teaspoons fine sea salt
- 1 cup rolled oats (plus extra for sprinkling on top)
- 1 cup plain yogurt (dairy or nondairy–not Greek-style)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup virgin coconut oil, melted (or vegetable oil of choice)
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2/3 cup milk (dairy or nondairy)
- 3/4 cup dried cherries or dried cranberries, finely chopped
Instructions
- Preheat to 350°F. Line a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper; spray with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the oat flour, chickpea flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the oats, yogurt, eggs, oil, syrup and vanilla until well blended. Stir in milk.
- Gently stir yogurt mixture and cherries into the flour mixture just until thoroughly blended. Scrape batter into prepared pan, spreading evenly. Sprinkle the top with 1 tablespoon oats.
- Bake in preheated oven for 40 to 50 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Use parchment liner to lift loaf from pan; cool completely.
Notes
An equal amount of honey or brown rice syrup can be used in place of the maple syrup.

While I loved the flavors and subtle sweet nuttiness in this bread (and the ingredients!), mine turned out dense and didn't rise in the middle. I used my own yogurt which, though not greek, it's pretty thick. Do you think I needed more liquid? I didn't change anything except leaving out the cherries. Thanks for the great recipes!

[…] Oats and chickpea flour work in structural and delicious harmony in egg-free recipes. For example, these multipurpose, 3-Ingredient Chickpea Flour and Oat Crepes, as well as this winning Chickpea Flour and Oat Quick Bread. […]

Hi Betsy! Any dried fruit, or simply leave them out. You could also so some finely chopped chocolate or mini chips :)

Best non wheat recipe I tried. Used sugar as I did not have marple syrup or honey and it worked. Will definitely make again.

Hi , Tried this today. A real gamble as all gluten free or vegetarian breads or cakes I have tried have failed. It is it It I love it no jokes. I used brown sugar (only because I had no maple syrup or honey) and no berries too. Thanks for sharing! Wanted to post a picture but picture is not posting !!
