Ingredients
- For the wet ingredients:
- 3 medium to large extra ripe bananas, mashed (about 1 ⅓ cup mashed banana)
- ⅓ cup (75g) melted and cooled coconut oil
- ½ cup (107g) packed brown sugar (or coconut sugar)
- ½ tablespoon vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons dairy free milk of choice
- For the dry ingredients:
- 1 ¾ cup (210g) all purpose flour*
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon salt
- Optional add-ins:
- ½ cup (90g) chocolate chips
- ½ cup (56g) chopped walnuts (or pecans)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 inch pan with parchment paper and grease the inside of the pan to prevent sticking. If you use a larger loaf pan, such as a 9x5, please know your bread will be much thinner and will take less time to cook.
- In a large bowl mix together the mashed banana, brown sugar, coconut oil, vanilla extract and milk to a bowl until well combined.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix; it’s totally fine if there are some lumps of banana, etc. Feel free to fold in ½ cup chopped walnuts or ½ cup chocolate chips (or both!) if you’d like.
- Add banana bread batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 40-50 minutes or until a tester inserted into the middle comes out clean or with just a few crumbs attached. Allow bread to cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes, then remove and transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.
- Once bread is cool, cut into 10 slices. Serve with nut butter spread on top for a healthy snack or breakfast on the go.
Notes
- Frozen bananas should be thawed first and then drained of excess liquid before using in this recipe.
- *If you use whole wheat flour (I recommend whole wheat pastry or white whole wheat flour), you’ll likely need to add two more tablespoons of milk to the recipe.
- To make gluten free: I suggest using chickpea flour or an all purpose gluten free flour. I do not recommend using almond flour or coconut flour in this recipe.
