Vegan Guinness Bread
Author:Vegan Guinness Bread! YES! A deliciously soft and fluffy quick bread infused with an entire can of Guinness for a subtle, malty, rich flavour. It's yeast-free, super easy to make in one bowl, and is perfect for all of your cozy soup and stew dipping needs!
Ingredients
- 3⅓ cups (430 grams) whole wheat flour
- ½ cup (50 grams) rolled or old-fashioned oats , plus a few more for decoration
- 4 tablespoons dark brown sugar
- 3 teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda (bicarbonate of soda in the UK)
- 1 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1 x 440 ml (14.9 fl oz) can of Guinness , If you have a 500ml can, use the whole can and omit the milk. If you only have a 330ml bottle, either use 2 and measure out the correct amount OR use 1 and make up the rest with milk.
- ¼ cup (60 ml) dairy-free milk
- 4 tablespoons melted vegan butter , or oil
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan with a little oil. Lay a rectangular strip of parchment paper down the middle to stop the bottom of the bread from sticking and to act as handles for lifting the loaf out after it's baked.
- To a large mixing bowl add the flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Mix to combine.
- Make a well in the middle and add the Guinness, milk, and melted butter. Mix gently until you can no longer see any dry flour.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared tin, scatter some oats over the top, and bake for about 1 hour or until well-risen, crusty, coming away from the edges of the pan, and a toothpick or metal skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean. Cooking times vary depending on your oven and the pan you use so it might need a few minutes more or less.
- Lift the loaf out of the pan and place on a cooling rack. Tip it gently to the side to remove the parchment paper and allow to cool, ideally for at least 20 minutes before cutting, but we all know that's hard with fresh bread! I recommend using a serrated knife.
