apple and cinnamon breadI’m putting two recipes together here because I’m afraid I’m going to need a day off tomorrow from cooking and photographing food. I don’t usually talk about my health problems on here, and I’d hate to start, but I’m feeling really dizzy again, and I’m sure it is just exhaustion. So, a day off is needed. This post is jammed pack full of pictures and recipes for vegan banana bread and vegan apple and raisin bread. Yum!
For both recipes preheat oven to 356°F (180°C)

Banana Bread


3 mashed bananas
2 cups self raising flour
1 cup oat milk
3/4 cup vegan spread
handful of oats
3/4 cup unrefined caster sugar
icing sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp apple cider vinegar

Mix everything together in a bowl. I’m just kidding, don’t do that!

In a separate bowl mix together the bananas with the flour, oats and caster sugar.
Combine the two bowls and mix with a wooden spoon.
Fill up a loaf tin with the batter and bake for 25 minutes.
Turn out onto a cake stand and sprinkle with icing sugar if you wish.
