Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with a small amount of coconut oil.
In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Melt the coconut oil in a small saucepan or microwave, then allow to cool slightly before adding to the bananas.
Add the granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract to the banana mixture. Mix well until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Add the dairy-free milk to the batter and stir until smooth and well-incorporated.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
Allow the banana loaf to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
