Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 packet (2.25 tsp) active dry yeast
- 1.25 cups almond milk
- 3 tablespoons coconut sugar
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 3 tablespoons coconut oil
- 0.75 cup raisins
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup water
Instructions
In a small saucepan over low heat, warm the almond milk until it's lukewarm. Remove from heat and add the coconut sugar, stirring to dissolve.
Sprinkle the yeast over the warm almond milk mixture and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes, or until it looks foamy.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center, and pour in the yeast mixture, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and the water. Stir until a dough begins to form.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 8-10 minutes until it's smooth and elastic.
Flatten the dough out into a rectangle. Sprinkle the cinnamon and raisins evenly over the surface.
Roll the dough up tightly into a log, tucking in the ends and making sure the seam is underneath.
Place the dough into a greased loaf pan, cover it with a clean cloth, and allow it to rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Once the dough has risen, bake it in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the bread sounds hollow when tapped.
Remove from oven and let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve warm or toasted with your favorite vegan spread.
