Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large ripe bananas
- 0.25 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 0.33 cup coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup light brown sugar
- 2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.75 cup vegan chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas using a fork or potato masher until smooth.
Add the almond milk, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and brown sugar to the mashed bananas. Stir well until all ingredients are combined and smooth.
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix, to keep the bread tender.
Fold in the vegan chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
