  • 2 "vegan eggs": 2 tbsp flax seed meal with 5 tbsp hot water, mix and let stand at least 5 min.
  • 1/2 cup coconut yogurt

  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract

Preparation

Step 1

preheat oven to 400 degrees

combine flax seed meal with water and set aside for 5 minutes

combine all other wet ingredients

combine wet ingredients and flax eggs and mix well

combine all dry ingredients in a large bowl, mix well with a whisk, letting the flours baking powder, salt, spices distribute evenly.

slowly add wet ingredients to dry ingredients, stir with large spatula, keep stirring until a sticky mixture forms with no dry flour visible.

pour the batter into the greased loaf pan, cover lightly with wax paper or cling wrap

let the mixture sit 3-6 hours. this creates a fermentation which will make the bread fluffier & also makes the grains more easily digestible. yes you can cook it right away, but i recommend to keep this step to get better nutrition :)

put into oven and bake 15 minutes at 400 degrees

reduce temperature to 350 degrees and bake an additional 35 minutes
