If you have my cookbook, Just the Good Stuff, you know I have an obsession with snickerdoodle.

I share a recipe for snickerdoodle cookies in my cookbook but this is the first ever snickerdoodle bread of sorts on the blog.

In my opinion, snickerdoodle anything is the must underrated flavor palette. I am a sucker for cinnamon and it has that perfect cinnamony taste to it.

This bread though.. it is life changing. A vegan and gluten-free Snickerdoodle Bread made with all healthy ingredients.

This recipe is one you can enjoy anytime of the day. You can have it for breakfast with some yogurt and any toppings you’d like. Or you can snack on it during the day or have some after dinner for dessert. I bet some ice cream on top of this would be insane. But until my freezer has more vacancy, I can’t see that happening anytime soon.

You will only need a few ingredients it whip this up. It takes about an hour to fully cook, so put a movie on or hop in the bath to distract yourself from the time. But the smell alone will have you salivating the entire hour that it is baking.

Ingredients needed for my paleo snickerdoodle bread:

  • Almond meal and almond flour – as we learned in this blog post, these two are interchangeable in most recipes. I used both here because I wanted to add a little grainy consistency from the almond meal, but you can use one or the other or both like I did.
  • Non-dairy yogurt – or use your favorite dairy yogurt (I have made it both ways)
  • Unsweetened applesauce – I love baking with this for a little added natural sweeteness
  • Eggs or flax eggs – either will work. I use these ground flaxseeds to make flax eggs usually
  • Maple syrup – or sub honey if you prefer. You need a liquid sweetener
  • Coconut sugar – for the topping!
  • Cinnamon – and LOTS of it!
