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 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.
Step 4
In another bowl, beat together the vegan buttermilk mixture, vegetable oil, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Step 5
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
Step 6
Fold in the cranberries and chopped walnuts, ensuring they're evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 7
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Step 9
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Once cooled, slice and serve the Vegan Cranberry Walnut Bread. Enjoy!
