Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
- In a blender, add ground flax seeds, almond milk, lemon juice, applesauce, and melted vegan butter. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, add almond flour, oat flour, arrowroot starch, baking soda, baking powder, ground cinnamon, salt, and organic cane sugar. Whisk to combine.
- Add vanilla extract to the mixture in the blender, and blend on high until smooth. Fold liquid mixture into the dry mixture. Stir until all ingredients are moistened.
- Pour half the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Combine cinnamon sugar swirl ingredients in a small bowl. Sprinkle half of cinnamon sugar mixture on top of batter. Pour remaining batter on top. Sprinkle remaining cinnamon sugar in an even layer on top. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Remove gluten-free cinnamon bread from oven and place on a wire cooling rack. Allow to cool completely before topping with glaze.
- When ready to glaze, combine all glaze ingredients in a small bowl. For a thicker glaze, add a little more powdered sugar. For a thinner glaze, add a little more almond milk. Pour glaze over top of bread and spead into an even layer, allowing to drip down the sides.
