Gingerbread Loaf Recipe Recipe

(45 grams) almond flour (see notes)

cinnamon

cloves

¼ teaspoon cardamom (optional)

softened butter, plant-based butter or coconut oil

coconut sugar or brown sugar (packed)

maple syrup

dairy free buttermilk (coconut milk

Tablespoons butter

molasses (adjust to taste)

Tablespoons brown sugar or coconut sugar

Powdered sugar sprinkled

Maple Cashew Cream Cheese Frosting

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9&#215;5 or 8&#215;4 loaf pan. Set aside.

Mix the non-dairy milk and vinegar together in a liquid measuring cup. Set aside for 10 minutes.

in a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten free 1:1 flour, almond flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, optional cardamom, and salt.

In another large mixing bowl, beat the butter until fluffy and add the coconut sugar until well combined. Pour in the maple syrup, molasses and vanilla. Mix again. Add the eggs and whisk until the mixture is combined and smooth.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture alternating with adding the buttermilk as well (1 cup flour, half cup milk, mix, etc). Gently mix after each addition until the mixture is a smooth batter.

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and place in the preheated for 45 to 55 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean (some crumb may be left on the toothpick). If needed, gently cover with foil after 40 minutes if the loaf is browning too quickly.

Cool the loaf in the pan for 30 minutes then remove the bread from the pan and transfer to a wire rack and allow to cool before slicing or adding the optional glaze. (Optional) Once the loaf is completely cool, whisk together the glaze ingredients in a small bowl until combined and thickened (it may take a couple minutes to thicken). Pour the glaze on top of the bread. If desired, sprinkle with powdered sugar.

Store the loaf in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

Christmas Bread

unsalted butter (softened)

vanilla extract

sour cream

milk

all-purpose flour

baking powder

Christmas sprinkles (plus more for topping)

heavy cream

Preheat the oven to 350°F and spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray; set aside.

In a large bowl with a hand mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

Add in the eggs and vanilla and mix just until combined then mix in the sour cream and milk until incorporated; set aside.

In a separate large bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.

Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and stir in until just combined and no flour streaks remain.

Lastly, fold in the sprinkles but do not overmix them or they could bleed into the batter.

Spread into the prepared loaf pan and bake for about 60 to 70 minutes or until a toothpick comes clean from the center and the top is just golden. Remove from the oven and cool in the pan for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Meanwhile, make the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, heavy cream, and vanilla. Spread the icing over the cooled bread and smooth out with a rubber spatula.

Sprinkle with extra sprinkles if desired then let set then slice and serve.

Thos looks so yummy &amp; fun!  I can't wait to try it.  Can you make the loaf ahead &amp; freeze it up to 4 weeks &amp; then frost after it has thawed?

I love the flavor and look of this bread! I used (3) mini loaves and made (2) batches. Each time, the bread rosed in the middle but not the sides making for a very weird shaped mini bread! I baked them at 350 for 35-40 minutes, until toothpick came out clean.   Any suggestions?

I actually hit 4 mini loaves. Perfect size!  I used the cinnamon and haven’t tried the almond extract yet but might make another one and try the almond

I made three batches. 8 mini loaves for gifts and one full loaf to take for Christmas Eve. I ate one mini and it was delicious!

While I would not rate a recipe I haven’t tried and certainly not rate due to nutritional content I will comment on the bad rating as well as the response.  I looked at the nutrition details and immediately thought yikes hopefully that’s a typo. But when you say those numbers are for the entire loaf ok fine but it does not state that. Normally nutritional information does go by serving which yes I see at the top of the recipe it states serving is a loaf but really who is going to sit and consume a loaf. Goodness sakes. Guess my point is this world has enough Karen’s. Be kind. Merry Christmas all!🎄I do plan on making few loaves for my neighbors as I’m sure the bread will be a nice Christmas morning treat🧁☕️🧃💕

This bread smells amazing! With the vanilla I added the 2 teas. and 1/2 teas. Almond extract. It is a beautiful bread. I made it for my husband to take to work.

This is a 5 STAR recipe!!! My phone wouldn't let me hit the last star so all that waa sent was the 4 so sorry :(  I agree with your statement that a person has left you 1 star because of nutrition ughhhh so un-kind.  NOW..... 4 my comments lol this bread is ABSOLUTELY delicious &amp; came out so wonderfully.  An easy, quick yet so festive holiday dessert to bake &amp; hand out 2 everyone 2 enjoy.  Thank you so much for this beautiful dessert!! May you have a safe, happy Blessed Christmas &amp; a very happy new year!! Laura ❤️
