Ingredients

Wet Ingredients

  • 4 tbsp apple sauce
  • ½ cup oil plus a little extra for greasing your pan
  • 1 cup vegan milk
  • 4 tbsp maple syrup
  • 4 tsp vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • ¾ cup cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1¾ cup flour

Optional

  • chocolate chips as a topping

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease a bread pan with a little oil on the bottom and all sides. Set aside.
  • Whisk together all of the dry ingredients in a bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients.
  • Once the oven has fully preheated, mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients with a baking spatula or spoon until just combined. The mixture will still have a little bit of lumps. Don't overmix - you don't want the mixture to be smooth.
  • Once combined, pour the mixture into the greased pan. If topping with chocolate chips, press them gently into the top of the mixture.
  • Place the pan in the oven on the middle rack and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick stuck in the center comes out clean.
  • Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove from the pan and transfer to a wire rack. Let cool completely (or eat immediately if you can't resist, like me!).
