Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/3 cup melted coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup or agave nectar
  • 1/4 cup almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • Pinch of salt

Optional Add-ins:

  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
  • 1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat Your Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan to ensure easy removal of the banana bread once baked.

Step 2: Prepare the Wet Ingredients

In a large bowl, mix the mashed bananas with melted coconut oil. Stir in 1/2 cup maple syrup (or agave nectar) and 1/4 cup almond milk, followed by 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to create a flavorful base.

Step 3: Add Baking Agents

Sprinkle in 1 teaspoon of baking soda and a pinch of salt, mixing well until fully combined.

Step 4: Incorporate the Flour

Gently fold in 1 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour until you achieve a smooth batter. If you choose to add any optional ingredients, now is the time to incorporate 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans, and/or 1/2 cup of vegan chocolate chips.

Step 5: Transfer to Loaf Pan

Pour the prepared batter into the greased loaf pan, spreading it evenly for uniform baking.

Step 6: Baking Time

Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean when the bread is ready.

Step 7: Cooling

Once baked, let the banana bread cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Storage

Vegan banana bread can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate, where it can last up to a week.

Freezing

If you’d like to make it ahead of time, this banana bread freezes well. Wrap slices in plastic wrap and store them in an airtight container; they will keep for 2-3 months.

Serving Suggestions

Serve up a slice with your favorite vegan spread, such as almond butter or coconut cream, or enjoy it plain for a delicious treat.

Variations

Feel free to experiment with different mix-ins such as dried fruit, seeds, or spices like cinnamon for added flavor.
