Being vegan couldn't be easier! This blog is aimed to show that vegan food is far from being salad and beans and that crafting without animal products is not just making hemp bags like a hippy commune! Quick, easy, tasty and fun. These recipes are for those who want quick, simple yet tasty and nutritious food, not to mention cheaper than the non vegan alternatives.

Coffee and Date Loaf
Mmmmmmm. I was making a starter for my Jim Lahey bread with rye (on the left of the picture. To make it rye I add 1/2 cup of rye flour/meal and only 2 1/2 cups white flour. I also use the rye as the dusting flour), I added sunflower seeds and remembered my bakery days and the delicious coffee and date loaf. So I went searching and found this recipe. The only changes needed to make it vegan was to use dairy-free margerine and I replaced the egg with a heaped teaspoon of egg replacer. I also added a little extra baking soda.
This is a delicious bread/cake. Super moist and fairy simple. Definitely one to make for when friends come around. (On the right in the picture).
