Why I love this recipe

This bread recipe is extremely easy to make, and it's so versatile! I used a combination of Cassava Flour and Tapioca Flour to create a soft texture that doesn't break apart easily.

To avoid adding sugar I used unsweetened applesauce which adds a little sweetness and moisture to the bread. This recipe is gluten-free, nut-free, dairy-free, and yeast-free!

🍴Ingredient Notes

• Eggs - I have not tested this recipe with an egg replacement and would not recommend it. The eggs help to create a fluffy texture.
• Coconut Milk - I used unsweetened coconut milk, but any non-dairy milk will work.
• Unsweetened Applesauce - I like using applesauce to give the bread extra moisture and a bit of sweetness without adding sugar.
• Apple Cider Vinegar - This helps to activate the baking soda. I promise you won't taste it!
• Avocado Oil - I have not tested this recipe with melted coconut oil, but I believe it would work. You can also use Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
• Flour - I used a combination of Cassava Flour and Tapioca Flour for this recipe! Do not swap flours for anything else. If you're not familiar with cassava flour, it's a great gluten-free flour alternative! It has a very light, powdery texture, and it’s made from Yuca. You can find it on amazon, or at most natural markets.
• Baking Powder + Baking Soda - You'll need both to create the perfect texture!

🍴Step by Step Instructions

Step 1: Mixing Wet Ingredients

Start by adding apple cider vinegar into a bowl with coconut milk. Let it sit for five minutes to create a vegan "buttermilk."

Then add the eggs, applesauce, avocado oil, and coconut milk mixture into a separate bowl. Blend with a hand mixer or whisk until fully combined.

Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients

While you wait, add cassava flour, tapioca flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into a bowl. Whisk together until fully combined.

Step 3: Fold together

Finally, pour the dry mixture into the wet mixture and stir together. Let sit for 5 minutes.

Step 4: Baking

Pour the mixture into a parchment paper lined bread pan. (Grease edges with coconut oil.) Bake the bread at 350 degrees for 45-50 minutes.

Step 5: Cooling

Pull the bread out by using the parchment paper and place on a cooling rack. (Remove parchment paper.) Let the bread sit for at least 20 minutes before cutting into it.

Expert Tips

1. When measuring flours, use a spoon to add flour into measuring cup. Scrape the excess off the top with a butter knife. Do not pack the flour!
2. Make sure parchment paper overhangs so you can easily pull the bread up and out of the pan!
3. If you don't use parchment paper, make sure to grease the pan! I like using coconut oil, but any non-stick spray will work.
4. Baking time will depend on how large the bread pan is. For a smaller bread pan, it takes about 45-50 minutes. If you use a larger bread pan, it will bake faster. Check your bread with a toothpick or fork before removing.

How to store leftovers

Leftover bread is best stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container. You can also store it on the counter at room temperature, but it will stay fresh for longer in the refrigerator.

You could also pre-slice the loaf and save half for later in the freezer! Make sure you're using a freezer safe container.

Let the bread defrost on the counter or toast until bread is golden brown.
