Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal
  • 1 ⅓ cup almond flour
  • 1 ½ cups oat flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon Kosher salt
  • ½ cup vegan chocolate chips

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 2 medium bananas mashed
  • ¼ cup coconut oil melted
  • ⅓ cup almond milk or coconut milk
  • ½ cup coconut sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon orange peel extract or 1 tablespoon orange zest
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350F and line a loaf pan with parchment paper. In a small bowl, whisk the flax with the water and allow it to sit for a bit.
  • In a large bowl, combine all dry ingredients except for the chocolate chips. In a medium bowl, whisk all wet ingredients, together with the flax egg.
  • Pour the wet over the dry and stir to combine. Fold in the chocolate chips, then transfer the batter to the prepared pan.
  • Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Notes

  • Sprinkle chopped nuts into the batter and atop the bread. Some nut options include chopped pecans, walnuts, or almonds.
  • Add blueberries or strawberries to this vegan banana bread to make a blueberry or strawberry banana bread recipe.
  • Drizzle some peanut butter, almond butter, or cashew butter into the bread batter, or just serve it with the bread.
  • Instead of chocolate chips, you can chop up a dark chocolate bar.
  • Omit the chocolate if you do not want any chocolate flavors.
  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. Freeze banana bread slices in a freezer-safe bag in the freezer for up to three months and allow to thaw in the refrigerator before reheating.
  • Coconut sugar can be replaced with maple syrup or agave nectar.
