Ingredients

Scale
  • 300 g white bread flour
  • 200 g plain (all-purpose) flour
  • 10 g fast action yeast
  • 50 g caster sugar
  • 120 ml aquafaba
  • 200 ml unsweetened non-dairy milk
  • 200 g vegan butter or olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 Tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1 Tbsp non-dairy milk (for glaze)
  • 1 Tbsp maple syrup
  • ½ tsp sunflower oil

Instructions

  1. In a stand mixer bowl, combine white bread flour and plain flour. Add yeast to one side, salt and sugar to the other; mix well.
  2. Pour in aquafaba and non-dairy milk; stir to form a rough dough. Knead on medium speed until smooth and elastic.
  3. Incorporate softened vegan butter or olive oil into the dough until fully combined.
  4. Transfer dough to a bowl, cover well, and refrigerate overnight for rising.
  5. The next day, punch down the dough and shape it into one loaf or smaller pieces in a lined loaf tin.
  6. Let it rise again until doubled in size (1 – 2.5 hours).
  7. Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Brush glaze over the top before baking for about 20 minutes; lower temperature to 160°C (320°F) for an additional 25-30 minutes.
  8. Cool in tin for 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
