Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 2 cups unsweetened soy milk
  • 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
  • 4-4 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 4 tablespoons vegan butter, cold and cut into cubes
  • 1 cup raisins, optional

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Make the vegan buttermilk by mixing the milk and vinegar in a bowl. Set aside to curdle.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 4 cups of flour, sugar, baking soda and salt.
  • Using clean fingers, work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. Add the raisins in now, if using.
  • Pour in the vegan buttermilk and stir with a large wooden spoon until it's mostly together.
  • Knead the dough a little bit so it comes together. It won't be a perfectly round ball of dough. Add flour to the dough and your hands as needed if it's too sticky.
  • Transfer to a lightly floured surface and shape into a round loaf. Again, it won't look perfect! Now place the loaf onto a baking pan or better yet a cast iron pan.
  • Score the bread with an x using a serrated knife, about an inch to two inches deep.
  • Bake for 40-50 minutes, until golden. Cool for 10 minutes, then slice and enjoy.
