Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. and lightly grease a bread loaf pan.
- In a small bowl, mix the flax meal and water. Set aside for 5 minutes.
- In a glass, mix the water and instant coffee. Set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer, mix together the sugar and vegan butter. Then, add the rest of the ingredients except the walnuts.
- Fold the 1 cup of walnuts into the batter and pour it into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes. Test by sticking a toothpick in the middle. If the toothpick comes out dry, the loaf is done.
- While the loaf if baking, combine all the ingredients for the glaze in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Transfer to a cooking rack and allow it to cook completely before adding the glaze, then spread the remaining 1 tablespoon of walnuts on top of the loaf.

Notes
- Use high-quality ingredients: Use high-quality coffee you like the flavor of, good walnuts, and natural vanilla extract for the best flavor.
- Measure the flour correctly: Fluff it up in its bag, spoon it into the measuring cup, and level it with the back of a knife. Too much flour leads to dry, dense bakes.
- Don’t over-mix the batter: You could overwork the gluten and end up with a dense, dry coffee loaf.
- For a stronger coffee flavor: Dissolve more instant coffee/espresso into the water for a stronger brew.
