Generally, vegan banana bread seems to be particularly grumpy when it comes to either cooking all the way through, having a poor flavor, being to dry, lumpy, and just overall blah. However, this one I tripled, which tells you how good it must be. :)
As always, most recipes I post are open to creative interpretation by the baker and often have room for add-ins to cater to your preferences. Extra goodies that would be good in this bread would be unsweetened coconut flakes, vegan chocolate chips, or sliced almonds. Also, since it's not overbearingly sweet, it pairs well with strong coffee & tea (especially for those of you who are creamer fans)!
Bad-Day Banana Bread
Prep Time: 15-20 Minutes
Bake Time: 1-1 1/2 hours
Cooking Stuffs:
- 3 ripe bananas
- 2 Tablespoons flax meal (ground flax seeds)
- 3/4 cup coconut milk
- 1/8 cup raw sugar
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups flour
- sprinkle of salt
In a large bowl, peel the bananas and using a potato masher, mash thoroughly. Slowly stir in the remaining ingredients using an electric hand mixer or a wooden spoon (com'mon muscles!). It should make a fairly thick batter that smells divine! Pour into a loaf pan, 9x13 glass dish, or cupcake pan that has been greased with olive oil. Bake for 45 minutes, then use a knife to see if the center is done. If not, bake in addition 15 minute intervals until the knife comes out clean. Allow to cool and serve. Store in a sealed ziplock to preserve their freshness and they are completely freeze-able!
Happy Baking!
