Simple Vegan Banana Bread (1 Bowl)

Vegan Banana Bread! A super moist banana loaf that you won't believe is vegan!. An easy 1 bowl quick bread with the best flavour! Perfect for breakfast or dessert!

So happy to say I veganized my classic banana bread recipe!! Yup and it's the best vegan banana bread ever! That’s right made without eggs or dairy! And it comes together so easy in 1 bowl! Perfectly moist with a gorgeous golden crust.

I like the addition of walnuts in this banana loaf but you could switch it up and add vegan chocolate chips instead or do both or leave them out completely! It’s totally up to you!! This is fast becoming a family favourite.

This bread is a total winner folks and a no fail recipe! It's the only banana bread recipe you will ever need! You’ll love it! Super versatile too it can be made oil free, or gluten free!

How to make Vegan Banana Bread:

Preheat oven to 350°. Spray a 9x5 non stick loaf pan with cooking spray and set aside.

Add the overripe bananas to a large mixing bowl and mash with a fork until smooth. Whisk in the rest of the wet ingredients and mix well.

Now add the dry ingredients on top starting with the flour, then add the baking soda, salt and cinnamon on top of the flour. Mix until just combined.

Fold in the chopped walnuts and dairy free chocolate chips (if using)

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 60-65 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean (I usually bake it for 60 minutes).

Remove banana bread from pan and cool on a cooling rack for at least 10-15 minutes before slicing. Or cool completely and then slice. It should be a lovely golden brown on top with some cracks which is completely normal.

Serve with or without vegan butter. Tastes even better the next day!! Enjoy!

Vegan Banana Bread Q & A:

What can I sub for oil ?

• With this banana bread recipe you can use apple sauce in place of the oil. It works well, but I do prefer the texture when using oil.

What can I use to replace the eggs in vegan banana bread?

• People have used flax eggs or apple sauce. I use bananas and vegan yogurt as an egg replacement. It works the best in my opinion!

Pro tips for perfect vegan banana bread:

• Use overripe bananas for best banana flavour!
• Don’t over mix the batter but do make sure it is completely mixed
• add chocolate chips!! Yum
• Make sure leavening agents are fresh for a good rise which in this recipe would be baking soda

Ok let's make some Banana Bread! It's:

• vegan

Notes

• you can use melted vegan butter or refined coconut oil in place of grapeseed oil. (I prefer grapeseed oil)
• For oil free: use applesauce instead of oil (Oil is my preference)
• For gluten free: use a gluten free flour blend and you could also use a white whole wheat flour or a spelt flour in place of all purpose flour. I like recipe best as written.
• For nut free: omit the walnuts
• To store and freeze: will keep covered on the counter for up to 3 days or in the fridge for up to a week and freezes well. Slice and wrap individually in plastic wrap to freeze. Or wrap the whole loaf tightly in plastic wrap and then in tin foil and it will keep for up to 2 months in the freezer.
