Vegan Irish Soda Bread

Ingredients

• 3 cups flour
• 1 1/2 cups raisins (or currants)
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1 tbsp baking powder
• 1 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 3/4 tsp caraway seeds
• 1 cup nondairy milk (of choice)
• 3/4 cup plant based yogurt
• 1/3 cup applesauce
• 2 tbsp oil

Instructions

1. 1

   Begin by preheating the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a nine inch round baking pan well, and set this pan aside.

2. 2

   Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, caraway seeds, and raisins or currants to a large mixing bowl. Stir very well.

3. 3

   Now add the vegan milk and yogurt, applesauce, and oil. Stir until just evenly mixed. To ensure the best texture, do not overmix.

4. 4

   Spread the batter into the prepared baking pan. Use a spoon or spatula to smooth out the top of the loaf.

5. 5

   Place the pan on the center rack of the oven, and bake for forty minutes or until lightly golden brown in color. A toothpick inserted into the center of the vegan loaf should come out mostly clean.
