Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
Mix together warm water and flaxseed in a cup. Let it sit until all other wet ingredients are mixed together well.
Melt the coconut oil. Mix together all liquid ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Then add the flax mixture.
Once all are well incorporated, stir in the baking soda and baking powder. Then the salt and spices.
Finally, with a spatula, fold in the flour. DO NOT OVERMIX or it'll make the bread tough.
Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan. Bake for 40 minutes. Remove from heat and stick it with a toothpick. It is done if the toothpick comes out clean. Otherwise place back in heat and bake until it comes out clean.
Let cool to room temperature, slice, and enjoy!
Store remaining bread in an airtight container on the counter for 2 days or in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat the bread in the microwave prior to eating for best results. Also drizzle maple syrup, spread vegan butter, or sprinkle with crushed pecans or pepitas for added flavor!
Notes
For lighter bread use 1.5 tsp baking powder and 1/2 tsp baking soda.
