Vegan Banana Bread

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

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  • Lightly grease a loaf pan 
  • Peel bananas and add them to the bowl of your mixer or mash with a fork.  Mash or puree to desired consistency.
  • To the pureed bananas add the sugar and mix to combine
  • Next add the oil, vanilla and coconut milk and mix well.
  • Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon powder and salt into a separate bowl.
  • 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.
  • If you want to add in some nuts, seeds or chocolate chips do that now and mix lightly.  Do not over mix the batter
  • 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.
  • Once the toothpick comes out clean take the loaf out of the oven and leave to cool for approximately 10 minutes.
  • 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.
