Vegan Cinnamon Bread Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 flaxseed eggs (2 tablespoons ground flaxseed + 6 tablespoons water)
- 1 cup almond milk (or any plant-based milk of choice)
- ¼ cup vegetable oil or melted coconut oil
- 1½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
For the Topping:
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons melted vegan butter (such as coconut oil or a vegan margarine)
Directions:
- Prepare for Baking:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan with vegan butter or oil. Set aside.
- Mix Dry Ingredients:
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda until well combined.
- Prepare Flaxseed Eggs:
- In a small bowl, mix together ground flaxseed and water. Let it sit for a few minutes until it becomes gel-like.
- Combine Wet Ingredients:
- In another bowl, whisk together granulated sugar and prepared flaxseed eggs until creamy. Add almond milk, vegetable oil (or melted coconut oil), cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
- Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures:
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Prepare the Batter for Baking:
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Add the Topping:
- In a small bowl, mix the additional sugar and cinnamon for the topping.
- Drizzle the melted vegan butter over the batter, then evenly sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture on top. Use a spatula to gently swirl the topping into the batter for a marbled effect.
- Bake:
- Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve:
- Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Slice and Enjoy:
- Slice the bread and serve as desired. It’s delicious on its own or toasted with vegan butter or spread.
