Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal
- 1 ⅓ cup almond flour
- 1 ½ cups oat flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350F and line a loaf pan with parchment paper. In a small bowl, whisk the flax with the water and allow it to sit for a bit.
- In a large bowl, combine all dry ingredients except for the chocolate chips. In a medium bowl, whisk all wet ingredients, together with the flax egg.
- Pour the wet over the dry and stir to combine. Fold in the chocolate chips, then transfer the batter to the prepared pan.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Notes
- Sprinkle chopped nuts into the batter and atop the bread. Some nut options include chopped pecans, walnuts, or almonds.
- Add blueberries or strawberries to this vegan banana bread to make a blueberry or strawberry banana bread recipe.
- Drizzle some peanut butter, almond butter, or cashew butter into the bread batter, or just serve it with the bread.
- Instead of chocolate chips, you can chop up a dark chocolate bar.
- Omit the chocolate if you do not want any chocolate flavors.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. Freeze banana bread slices in a freezer-safe bag in the freezer for up to three months and allow to thaw in the refrigerator before reheating.
- Coconut sugar can be replaced with maple syrup or agave nectar.
