Okay, folks, I’m doing another giveaway! This time it’s for a lovely sticker from The Secret Society of Vegans . They didn’t have a very large pic for me to post here, so just follow the link. Super cool company.
Ok, here’s what you do. Reply to this posting, just write a comment, and the winner will be randomly drawn. There will actually be 2 winners in this: to be entered you must tell me your favorite kind of quickbread (i.e banana bread… but not banana bread because I already have that). I will use your answers to develop a new quickbread recipe that I will name after the person sumbitting the idea and they will get a free copy of the book when it comes out. Sound like a plan?
So, to recap: reply in the comments with your favorite quickbread or a kind of quickbread you’d like to try (a bread that does not require yeast) and I will randomly pick a winner for the sticker and then intentionally pick a winner for the bread idea. Okay? Okay! The contest will close at midnight on Wednesday July 12th.
My quickbread section is rather lacking, so I need some inspiration. Thanks!

Comment by cherios July 9, 2006 @ 2:59 pmHi, I just found your site and can’t wait until I have some more time to browse a bit. Always glad to meet more friendly vegans! Here are some quick breads I have made and liked.

Banana Blueberry Coffee Cake

No Knead Oven Raised Bread – I know it’s not your typical quick bread but for a regular type of bread that’s super fast, this one can’t be beat. I usually use whole wheat (with a little gluten flour to help it rise and be fluffy) and lots of seeds/nuts.

Comment by Urban Vegan July 9, 2006 @ 4:42 pmSunflower seeds with cranberry or blueberry something…
I like maple syrupy-walnut-dried fruit type combos.
Coconut blueberry.
Comment by EatPeacePlease July 9, 2006 @ 5:20 pmPumpkin bread, no nuts! Maybe some cranberries in it. But I die for pumpkin bread. Oh man, now I want some…
Comment by Mindy July 9, 2006 @ 5:24 pmCinnamon bread! Mmmmmmmmm
And as far as quick breads with nuts in them…many people don’t like nuts mixed in stuff (yeah, I know I’m weird). In your cookbook, if a recipe needs to be altered in order to omit the nuts, will you be including those instructions? If you need a tester, feel free to let me know!
Comment by Laura Faye July 9, 2006 @ 5:32 pmLemon poppy seed
Comment by Jodie July 9, 2006 @ 6:46 pmBlueberry Bread
laura, probably you can just leave nuts out. Unless they are a whole bunch ground up, they are not doing anything chemically to the recipe.

Comment by tofufighter July 10, 2006 @ 3:09 pmYay, I love giveaways! I haven’t had it in a while but I love chocolate zucchini bread. I also think it would be cool to have blueberry lemon bread (instead of blueberry lemon muffins). Yum!
Comment by primaryconsumer July 10, 2006 @ 3:58 pmI love carrot bread (with golden raisens and nuts, optional). My absolute favorite is zuccini bread–that’s fabulous! What a way to go with the summer squash!
I also like mixed berries bread. We use a bag of the frozen mixed berries from Trader Joes to make this warm Sunday morning divinty. Adding coffee-cake like crumbles on top makes this even more sinful–and what a way to sin first thing in the morning. Esp nice for summer!
Comment by Puja K. July 10, 2006 @ 5:14 pmone of my favorite food combos is dark chocolate and orange… never thought about it in bread form until now. could be really good… i am thinking some kind of orange bread with dark chocolate chips. yummm!

Comment by ningostar July 10, 2006 @ 10:58 pmOK – if you can come up with not only a:
Pecan Rasberry Bread but make it a
“Carmel Pecan Rasberry” bread I will send YOU a sticker!
I love carmel flavor in everything!
Arline in L.A.
Comment by Arline July 10, 2006 @ 11:22 pmWhoops, Raspberry. (and those black raspberries you scored at the farmer’s markete would be swell.)
Comment by Arline July 10, 2006 @ 11:24 pmPumpkin and zucchini bread! YUM!

Comment by Denise July 11, 2006 @ 12:26 pmI never thought of Raspberries in a quick bread. Yummie.
Comment by Anonymous July 11, 2006 @ 9:59 pmI was thinking maybe almond quick bread with a powdered sugar glaze that has some almond extract in it too. I don’t know – that’s all I’ve got!
Thanks for turning me on to SSOV. Very cool!
Comment by Rachel July 11, 2006 @ 11:55 pmMy friend makes a non-vegan Coconut Key Lime Bread that I have always wanted to try to veganize but have not as yet. It looks and smells divine.
Comment by Jennifer C. July 12, 2006 @ 3:34 amHow about hazelnut cherry bread? I’m thinking dried cherries…
Or my mom used to make an amazing, dense, tart lemon quick bread with lemon glaze, which I haven’t been able to recreate.
Comment by mamafabun July 12, 2006 @ 2:49 pmOK, how about pecan, cinnamon and possibly sweet potato bread with a rum raisin glaze? Kinda like the bread pudding or pecan pie you get down south.
Comment by karen July 13, 2006 @ 12:24 amHow about a moist date bread with cinnamon, nutmeg and mace?
