Vegan kryddbrauð

Vegan spice bread

When it's wet and cold and disgusting outside - what could be better than making yourself comfortable at home with a nice piece of freshly baked spiced bread, still warm and spread with butter or margarine..?!?

Many Icelandic families bake their spiced bread according to a special family recipe. This recipe is a vegan version - and the Kryddbrauð really tastes as good as it smells!

Ingredients

180 g flour

100 g oat flakes

4 tsp baking cocoa

1 tsp ground ginger

1 tsp ground cloves

1 tsp cinnamon

2 tsp baking soda

175 g brown sugar

300 g oat milk

1 tsp oat flakes for sprinkling

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350 °F (180 °C) upper/lower heat.

Place all ingredients in a large bowl...

...and mix thoroughly into a nice dough.

Grease a loaf tin or line it with baking paper.

Pour the dough into the mold, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of oat flakes...

...and bake in the preheated oven in the lower third at 350 °F (180 °C) upper/lower heat for about 50 minutes (test with a toothpick!).

Allow the spiced bread to cool slightly, then carefully remove it from the mold.

Cut the bread into slices and spread with margarine if you like.

Bon appetit!
