Ingredients
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 1 tablespoon Ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cloves
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Coconut oil, melted
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 0.75 cup Molasses
- 0.75 cup Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup Unsweetened almond milk
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, ground ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine the melted coconut oil, applesauce, molasses, and brown sugar. Mix well until smooth and uniform.
Step 4
Stir in the vanilla extract and almond milk into the wet mixture until evenly combined.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the gingerbread dense.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the gingerbread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
Step 9
Transfer the gingerbread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
