A Challenge: Vegan Almond Flour Bread

Greetings from East Texas, everyone, where it snows one day (just 2 days ago) and feels like summer (mid 70s today) the next. It was absolutely glorious today, but, still feeling in a cozy mood from the previous days, I decided to stick with my plans to do some baking.

On the agenda: Almond Flour Bread. More precisely, Cinnamon Raisin Almond Flour Bread.

I have been playing with almond flour a lot lately, and absolutely loving the results. It is naturally gluten-free, rich with healthy fats, fiber and protein, and (thanks to its high fiber content) leaves me satisfied for hours.

.Almond flour is not difficult to use, so long as you add a whole lot of eggs. In the absence of eggs, it is a challenge.

I love challenges :).

Almond Flour + All-Purpose GF Flour Blend = Success

After much baking, and some hair pulling (another collapse loaf!), I finally succeeded by combining almond flour with an all-purpose gluten-free flour blend.

The sole reason I decided to make a cinnamon-raisin bread in particular, though, is this: I love cinnamon raisin bread. I love cinnamon, and I love raisins, but combine them, in bread form, and I am in bliss. I’ve been this ways since childhood.

This bread isn’t just good. It is amazing (if I do say so myself). It’s super-simple to make (one bowl, no hand mixers, & a short list of ingredients), and though it is low in sugar, it is great for dessert as well as for breakfasts and snacks.

 

If, for some reason, you do not share my love of raisins (ahem, that includes my sister, multiple friends, and husband), you can leave them out or using another dried fruit, such as dried cranberries. If it’s decadence you’re after, sub the raisins for some chocolate chips.

Happy baking, and here’s hoping you have lots of spring sunshine in your neck of the woods, too!
