Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 large ripe bananas
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup coconut oil
- 0.5 cup pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup plant-based milk
- 0.5 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8 inch baking pan with coconut oil or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth.
Add the coconut oil, pure maple syrup, vanilla extract, and plant-based milk to the mashed bananas and stir to combine.
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the chopped walnuts, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer the cake to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice into squares and serve. Enjoy your Vegan Banana Snack Cake as a delightful treat!
