Top Tips for Making Cinnamon Raisin Bread
-
I do not recommend replacing the brown rice flour with another flour, however, arrowroot starch can be used in place of tapioca flour if need be.
-
Honey or coconut nectar can be used in place of maple syrup, if desired.
-
For a sugar-free cinnamon raisin bread, I recommend this sugar-free sweetener.
-
I find adding a touch of coconut flour adds a little extra something to the texture of the bread, but it can be omitted for a still very tasty bread.
-
Butter, vegan butter or sunflower oil can be used in place of coconut oil.
-
This bread tastes best the same day it is made, but will keep covered at room temperature for up to 48 hours.
-
This gluten-free cinnamon raisin bread can be enjoyed as is, toasted with a smear of butter or coconut butter, alongside nut butters, and also makes an excellent french toast.
