Vegan Whole Wheat Onion Caraway Quick Bread Recipe

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at UVM chapter.

Have you ever tried cooking with beer? This was one of my first experiments making a beer-leavened bread recipe. I used Corona (mainly because I knew it was vegan and it was what my parents had in their fridge at the time), but you can also add a heartier stout to impart a different flavor. For a list of vegan beers, look here. If you would prefer to use a non-alcoholic option, you can also substitute an equal amount of seltzer water. 

I really like how simple this recipe was to make. It was prepared in under five minutes and quickly in the oven. I recommend serving it as a savory snack or as an appetizer.
