- 2 eggs

Instructions
- In a large bowl combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- In a separate bowl, mash avocado; add eggs and buttermilk and mix well.
- Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix only until flour is moistened. Do not over-mix.
- Pour batter into a greased 9×5 loaf pan and bake at 350 degrees F. for 50 – 60 minutes or until the cake tester comes out clean.
