Are you a huge fan of banana bread like me?! Banana bread has been a lifetime favorite of mine and a recipe I would hate to have the flavors tampered with but because I am moving away from dairy products I stepped out of my comfort zone. As I prepared to make my all time favorite the traditional way I veered toward creativity, change, and a more conscious decision to omit the typical stick of butter (stick of butter, yikes!) and egg. What I found was a way simpler recipe and the best dang banana bread I’ve ever tasted and believe me I’ve tasted a lot. Just 15 minutes of prep time and 45 minutes of baking that will fill your home with a mouth-watering aroma!
Ingredients
- ½ cup vegan sugar
- 1 ½ – 2 cups mashed ripe bananas or about 4 medium bananas
- ½ cup melted refined coconut oil or opt for Sun Coco oil which is a mix between sunflower and fractioned coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup nuts or vegan chocolate chips/cocoa nibs
- Optional; cinnamon & nutmeg
Prep
- Pre-heat oven to 350° F. Oil bottom of 9 x 5 inch loaf pan using your coconut oil or sun coco.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream sugar, bananas, coconut oil, spices and vanilla until smooth.
- Stir in almond milk, and ACV. Add flour and baking soda gradually, mix well.
- Add chopped nuts or chocolate chips if desired. Pour into pan.
- Bake 45 minutes to an hour or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Let it cool and set before slicing and enjoy!!
