Ingredients
-
8 oz White unbleached organic flour
-
1 tbsp Ginger
-
2 tsp Baking soda
-
1 tsp Cinnamon
-
1 tsp Cream of tartar
-
2 oz Sucanat (granulated cane juice)
-
2 1/2 oz Plumped currants
-
1 cup Unsweetened applesauceOr prune puree
-
1 cup Low-fat buttermilk
-
3 tbsp Molasses
Directions
Applesauce works well, but in this recipe prune puree works even better. Baby food prunes are okay, but you are also buying some preservatives and possibly some fillers. It is more economical to buy pitted prunes, heat them in some water, and puree them yourself in a blender or food processor. I then measure it out in 1-cup amounts and freeze these separately if they are not needed right away.
