The Perfect Vegan Banana Bread Recipe
Fluffy banana bread with smooth bites of chocolate and crunchy walnuts. The perfect combination made with simple ingredients
Ingredients
- ¾ cup non-dairy milk I like oat, almond or a mix of the two
- 1 Tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 3 very ripe bananas
- ¾ cup white sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract or paste
- 1/3 cup neutral oil I like avocado oil
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 ½ teaspoon cinnamon or even pumpkin pie spice
- 1 cup chocolate chips chopped, reserve ¼ cup for sprinkling on top
- ¾ cup walnuts chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F
- Combine the non-dairy milk and the apple cider vinegar together and let it sit while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
- Peel the bananas and mash them well on a plate. Add the mashed bananas to a mixing bowl along with the sugar, vanilla and oil. Mix well. Add the milk and apple cider mixture and combine. It will look very watery at first which is ok.
- Combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Mix together, then add to the wet ingredients. Use a spatula to fold the dry ingredients into the wet. Once halfway mixed, add the chopped chocolate chips and walnuts. Continue folding until fully combined.
- Add some parchment paper to a loaf pan and pour in the banana bread batter. Even the batter out in the pan and add some chopped chocolate chips to the top of the batter. Bake for 60-75 minutes or until a toothpick comes out of the center clean.
- Let cool 5 minutes and enjoy!
