What is actually still healthy? Some say no way margarine, no sugar, never this and definitely not that. If I think about it for a moment, then this bread should not exist. Easter bread should not exist at all. That’s why I live by my personal motto: 80% HEALTY + 20% FUN = 100% SEXY! With the 20% FUN I mean exactly this Easter bread. It’s just delicious, and when I feel like it, I’ll put an extra helping of margarine on it. Who participates? Hands up!
Vegan Easter Bread, No Way!
The dear Easter bread! I’m sorry, but I have to tell you a little anecdote about it. I was already very ambitious as a schoolgirl and really wanted to earn my own money. My dad (then a department manager in a wholesale store) was nice enough to get me a promotion job. Now guess what I sold there among other things? Easter bread! I had made it my mission and wanted to sell everyone, but really everyone who passed by my stand an Easter bread sell. You won’t believe this, but most people actually bought one, regardless! For this very reason, I have since called myself an “Easter Bread Professional!“. All kidding aside, let’s get going with today’s Recipe .
vegan Easter recipes, baby!
The basis for our Easter bread is a yeast dough made from Flaxseed egg , flour, Almond milk , dry yeast, raw cane sugar, applesauce, bourbon vanilla, lemon zest and margarine. Add to this, if desired, raisins and candied orange peel preserved in a little orange juice. After the dough has rested and risen nicely, it is kneaded again and gets a fine diamond pattern. Then it’s off to the oven and Voilà, ready!
So that the Easter bread is still nice and moist for the vegan Easter brunch, I spread it with apricot jam. Finally (optional) I make a frosting of lemon juice, powdered sugar and water. If you want to save calories and sugar, you can always omit this step. What is still missing? Chopped Almonds or almond slivers!
If it’s still not enough for you, you can also spread your Easter bread with a thick layer of margarine and jam. Otherwise I recommend a glass Homemade almond milk or a hot chocolate with it.
I’d say go for it with this delicious vegan Easter bread. I hope you enjoy baking and of course about a review at the bottom of this page. If you post a picture, use the hashtag #veganevibes.
