Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 1.5 cups Wheat bran
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
- 6 tablespoons Water
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 1.25 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine the ground flaxseed with water and let it sit for about 5 minutes to thicken. This will be your flax egg.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together whole wheat flour, wheat bran, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Step 4
In another bowl, mix the flax egg, brown sugar, almond milk, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Step 5
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together using a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix, as this can result in a dense bread.
Step 6
Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
Step 8
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
