Ingredients

• 240 ml unsweetened almond milk
• 7 g active dry yeast
• 50 g granulated sugar
• 480 g all-purpose flour
• 5 g fine sea salt
• 50 g coconut oil, melted
• 12 g ground cinnamon
• 70 g brown sugar
• 5 ml vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Warm the almond milk to about 43°C (110°F). It should be warm but not hot to the touch.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm almond milk with the granulated sugar and active dry yeast. Stir gently and let sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy.

Step 3

Add 2 tablespoons of the melted coconut oil to the yeast mixture along with 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Stir to combine.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and salt together. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until a soft dough forms.

Step 5

Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. If the dough is sticky, sprinkle a little more flour as needed.

Step 6

Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let rise in a warm environment for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Step 7

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan with a bit of oil or line it with parchment paper.

Step 8

Once risen, punch down the dough. Roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle approximately 20x25 cm (8x10 inches).

Step 9

In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and ground cinnamon together. Spread 3 tablespoons of melted coconut oil over the rolled dough and sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the oil.

Step 10

Starting from one of the shorter edges, tightly roll the dough into a log. Pinch the seam to seal.

Step 11

Place the rolled dough seam side down into the prepared loaf pan.

Step 12

Cover the loaf with a clean towel and let it rise again for about 30 minutes, or until puffy.

Step 13

Bake the cinnamon swirl bread in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown on top and hollow-sounding when tapped.

Step 14

Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 15

Slice and serve as is or with a spread of vegan butter. Enjoy your freshly baked vegan cinnamon swirl bread!
