Vegan Cinnamon Raisin Breakfast Bread Recipe
- 1 & 1/2 cups whole wheat flour
- 1 & 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 & 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 cup quick oats
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 3/4 cup raisins, soaked in 1/4 cup apple or orange juice
- 1 & 1/4 cup applesauce
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons ground flax seeds, mixed with 6 tablespoons of water (or egg replacer equivalent to 2 eggs)
- 1/4 cup soy, almond, or hempseed milk
Preheat the oven to 350° F, and grease and flour a loaf pan.
Mix the first seven ingredients well in a big bowl. Add the applesauce, oil, flax mixture, and soy milk, and stir well. Mix in the raisins and juice.
Pour into the loaf pan and bake for 45 – 60 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the middle comes out clean. Remove from the pan and let it cool.
This quickbread makes a great toast and complements any breakfast!

I dig singlespeed bicycles, simple living, organic gardening, sustainable lifestyle design, slacklining, bouldering, and baking with sourdough. I love good food; Colorado peaches are my all-time favorite. I really enjoy conversations with three year olds. I love being in the wilderness with my family; it feels like home. I love positive thinking and big audacious dreams. I like to skip rope, and yes, I do have a tiny rubber chicken (vegan) that lives with my flash drive. Come see me over at Natural Papa!

Just made this for my twin toddler girls; they love muffins and the like, but they can be too messy and are hard to cut into little pieces; this loaf bread turned out fantastic; easy to cut up & serve to them and they mmmmm’d all the way through it… thanks for the recipe!!
I was really happy to find this recipe.
The olive oil made an odd taste, but I was glad that this was moderatly healthy. I’ve been craving this all day and I’m sure it should turn out great =]
