Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 3-4 Over Ripe Bananas 3 large or 4 medium
  • 1/3 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Coconut Milk
  • 3 tbsp Vegetable or Sunflower Oil
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Essence
Dry Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups Whole Wheat Flour
  • 1/4 tsp Cinnamon Powder
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1 pinch Salt
Add Ins
  • 1/4 cup Chocolate Chips, vegan optional
  • 1/4 cup Chooped Nuts optional
  • 1/4 cup Sunflower Seeds optional

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  2. Lightly grease a loaf pan 
  3. Peel bananas and add them to the bowl of your mixer or mash with a fork.  Mash or puree to desired consistency.
  4. To the pureed bananas add the sugar and mix to combine
  5. Next add the oil, vanilla and coconut milk and mix well.
  6. Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon powder and salt into a separate bowl.
  7. Add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture in batches.  Make sure to scrape the sides of the bowl each time you add a batch of the dry ingredients.
  8. If you want to add in some nuts, seeds or chocolate chips do that now and mix lightly.  Do not over mix the batter
  9. Pour the mixture into the lightly greased loaf pan and place in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes.  The cooking time depends on the oven so make sure that you insert a toothpick into the bread around the 45-50 minute mark.  If it does not come out clean let it bake for another 5 minutes before repeating the toothpick test.
  10. Once the toothpick comes out clean take the loaf out of the oven and leave to cool for approximately 10 minutes.
  11. Remove from pan, slice and serve!

Notes

You can substitute apple sauce for the oil but it will change the consistency of the bread.
Store any leftover bread in a sealed container for up to 3 days.
