Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
- 0.75 cup Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Fresh or frozen cranberries
- 0.75 cup Chopped walnuts
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, mix the almond milk and apple cider vinegar to create a vegan buttermilk. Let it sit for about 5 minutes.
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg.
In another bowl, beat together the vegan buttermilk mixture, vegetable oil, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Fold in the cranberries and chopped walnuts, ensuring they're evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, slice and serve the Vegan Cranberry Walnut Bread. Enjoy!
