  • 10

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups  all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup  whole-wheat flour
  • 1/4 cup  unprocessed wheat bran
  • 1/4 cup  firmly packed brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons  ground cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons  baking powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons  baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon  salt
  • 3 tablespoons  chilled stick margarine, cut into small pieces
  • 2/3 cup  chopped pitted dates
  • 2/3 cup  vanilla low-fat yogurt
  • 2 egg whites, lightly beaten
  • Vegetable cooking spray

Preparation

Step 1

Combine first 8 ingredients in a bowl; cut in margarine with a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add dates; toss well. Add yogurt and egg whites, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened (dough will be sticky).

Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; with floured hands, knead lightly 3 to 4 times. Pat dough into an 8-inch circle on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Cut dough into 10 wedges, cutting into but not through dough.

Bake at 350° for 25 minutes or until loaf sounds hollow when tapped.
