Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons of ground flaxseeds
- 6 tablespoons of water
- 4 large ripe bananas, peeled
- ¼ cup of vegetable or canola oil
- ½ cup of plant-based milk (any variety)
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1 ¾ cups of all-purpose flour
- ½ cup of brown sugar
- 1 ½ teaspoons of baking powder
- ½ teaspoon of salt
- 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
- 1 cup of non-dairy semi-sweet chocolate chips or chunks, divided
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and lightly grease a 9x13 baking pan or dish.
- In a small bowl, beat together the flaxseed meal and water for 1 minute. Place in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
- Using a fork or potato masher, mash the bananas and stir in the oil, plant-based milk, vanilla, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and flaxseed mixture until it’s well-combined. Fold in ¾ cup of the vegan chocolate chips (or chunks).
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips on top, and bake for 50 minutes. Test by sticking a toothpick in the middle of the loaf. If the toothpick comes out dry, the loaf is done. If it’s not, bake in 5 minute increments until the toothpick comes out dry.

Notes
- Measure the flour correctly: Fluff it in its bag, spoon it into the measuring cup , and level it with the back of a knife rather than scooping it straight from the flour bag. Too much flour makes dense banana bars.
- Use very ripe bananas: They’re easier to mash but also sweetest for the best overall flavor and texture.
- Don’t over-mix the batter: You could overwork the gluten in the flour and end up with denser, drier banana bars.
