2cups Butternut squash puree (homemade)

1cup Whole wheat pastry flour

1cup Quick Cooking oats

1/2cup Barley flour

1/2cup All purpose flour

3/4cup Chocolate pieces

1/2tsp Baking soda

1/2tsp Baking powder

1/2cup Butter (room temperature)

1/2cup Sugar

Few butternut squash seeds for garnishing



Beat together butter and sugar until they turns creamy, meanwhile combine together the whole wheat pastry flour, quick cooking oats, barley flour, all purpose flour, chocolate pieces, baking soda and baking powder together and keep aside...I prepared butternut squash puree by pressure cooking some butternut squash pieces upto three whistles and pureed it in a blender until a soft and smooth puree..Preheat the oven to 350F..



Now add the homemade butternut squash puree to the creamy butter and sugar mixture and beat until well mixed..add gradually the flours-chocolate mixture to the wet ingredients, whisk until everything get well mixed..Grease a loaf pan and line a baking sheet over the loaf pan...pour the batter over the baking sheet,sprinkle the butternut squash seeds over the batter and bake for 25-30minutes until they turns brown or the skewers inserted comes out clean..



Enjoy this breakfast bread warm or cold!



Almond Milk:

10nos Almonds

2cups Thick milk

Sugar



Heat a cup of milk and soak the almonds in this hot milk for an hour or overnite..I usually soak the almonds overnite..Blend together the soaked almonds, milk and sugar..heat this milk for few minutes(until they gets slightly warm), they tastes divine if they are served warm...



A complete breakfast!
