Sweet chewy date pieces, tart cranberries, and crunchy nut pieces make this Fruit and Nut Breakfast Quick Bread a delicious way to start the day or enjoy it as an afternoon snack with tea. Fruit & Nut Breakfast Quick Bread- Vegan and Whole Grain

Did you know there is a some kind of national food holiday every single day of the year? Some days even have more than one!

As it turns out, today is National Date and Nut Bread day and it just so happens I made this Fruit and Nut Breakfast Quick Bread a while back. It's filled with date pieces, cranberries, and nuts so it seems fitting to share the recipe today. 

Fruit & Nut Breakfast Quick Bread- Vegan and Whole Grain I actually got the idea for this bread a few months ago while looking at a sales paper for one of the grocery stores we shop at. The ad featured a similar breakfast bread from the store bakery that looked yummy, but I figured it wasn't vegan so I came up with my own version. I can't say how it compares to the store bought, but I can say it was a hit with the family.

I used whole wheat flour and a bit of coconut sugar to make it a bit healthier and filled it with sweet date pieces, cranberries, and walnuts for lots of flavor and texture.

And since this is a quick bread it's super simple to put together. There's no kneading or waiting around for dough to rise, just combine everything in a bowl, pour it into a bread pan and bake. In just over an hour you'll have a freshly baked loaf of yummy bread perfect for breakfast or an afternoon snack.
