Prep time 15-20 minutes | Bake time 55-60 minutes

Ingredients: 
2 Cups spelt flour
1 Stick melted plant-based sweet butter at room temperature
1 Cup plain oat milk
2/3 Cup chopped toasted walnut
2/3 Cup dried Morello cherries
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1/3 Tsp. ground cardamom
2 Tbsp. orange zest
1/3 Cup freshly squeezed orange juice
¼ Tsp. sea salt

Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 375 F 
2. Generously brush a standard loaf pan (8-1/2 x 4-1/2 x 2-1/2 inches) with melted butter and set aside.
3. In a medium bowl combine all ingredients, except for the melted butter, oat milk and orange juice.
5. In a small bowl whisk oat milk, orange juice and melted butter. Then, pour them over the ingredients in the medium bowl.
6. With a fork, mix all ingredients until well combined and then pour into the greased loaf pan.
7. Put the loaf pan in the oven and bake for 55-60 minutes until the top is golden brown.
8. Remove the bread from the oven and transfer on a wire cooling tack for one hour. Then, carefully run a perry knife around the sides of the pan to loosen the bread.
9. Place a cutting board over the pan and turn it over to get the bread out, then gently flip over the bread. Next, slice the bread with a serrated knife and enjoy!

Happy Baking!
