Step aside, Banana Bread! This Vegan & Gluten Free Sweet Potato Bread is fluffy, wholesome, and full of warming spices.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tbsp Ground Flax + 6 tbsp Water
  • 2 1/2 cup Oats, ground into flour
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 2 tsp Cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Nutmeg (optional)
  • 1 1/2 cup Mashed Sweet Potato Puree (see notes)
  • 1/2 cup Coconut Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Unsweetened Plant Based Milk
  • 1 tsp Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1/4 cup Almond Butter

Instructions

  1. First, preheat your oven to 350F. In a small bowl, combine 2 tbsp of Ground Flax with 6 tbsp of Water to form an “egg.” Set Aside.
  2. Second, combine all dry ingredients in a medium bowl and stir well.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the Sweet Potato Mash, Almond Butter, Plant Milk, Flax Egg, Coconut Sugar, Vanilla Extract, and Apple Cider Vinegar. Mix until everything is well incorporated, then add in the dry ingredients. Gently stir until well combined.
  4. Pour the batter into a greased or lined loaf pan, then bake for 60-70 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out cleanly.
  5. Let sit in the loaf for 10 minutes, then let cool completely on a baking rack before slicing. Store any leftovers at room temperature in a sealed container for up to 7 days.

Notes

Ground Flax may be substituted with Ground Chia.

Almond Butter may be substituted with any other Nut or Seed Butter, just keep in mind that this will affect the overall flavor of the bread.

To make Oat flour, simply blend your oats in a high speed blender or food processor for 30-45 seconds, or until finely milled.

* To make Sweet Potato mash, poke some holes in some Sweet Potatoes with a knife and bake whole at 400F for 45-60 minutes, depending on size. The holes will ooze a “caramel” when the potatoes are done. Let cool, remove and discard the potato skins, then mash with a fork. Note: to save time, cook your potatoes with your dinner the night before you make this recipe!
