Homemade Vegan Cinnamon Swirl Bread

March 25, 2020
Bread is one of my favorite things to make from scratch because once you have your dough ball formed, the variations of what you can make with it are endless. You can add any type of herbs and spices you prefer after shaping it into whatever form appeals to you. This cinnamon swirl bread is sort of like an uncut loaf of cinnamons rolls. It smells amazing while it is cooking and makes the whole kitchen smell like spice. This is the perfect bread to make a breakfast sandwich on, to use for French toast, or to simply toast and serve with butter. If I had raisins on hand, I definitely would have added some but I will save that idea for next time. I used all-purpose flour in this recipe but you can play around with other kinds of flour to try and make a gluten free version.
