Easy Vegan Banana Bread

Vegan baking can be intimidating. A lot of core baking ingredients—butter, eggs, and milk—are not used. However, with a few simple adaptations, no one will know that your baked goods are dairy free. This recipe uses almond milk, but can be made with whatever milk substitute you choose. You can also add other favorite banana bread additions, such as chocolate chips and nuts.

    Made these this morning for breakfast. We don’t eat vegan but I thought this recipe sounded good. I was very skeptical with no eggs or oil.
    They were EXCELLENT! I used what I had on hand- only used 2 bananas, maple syrup for sugar, and added blueberries & walnuts. I also made them into muffins to reduce the cooking time ~15-20 mins at 350. Thank you for a great, easy, delicious recipe!

    I made these into muffins for breakfast this morning and they were delicious! I’m trying to cut back on refined sugar so I left that out. I figured my overripe bananas would make the muffins sweet enough and they did! I also doubled the cinnamon and added walnuts! Perfection. Thanks for this super easy, yummy recipe! It will become a staple in my house for many years to come!

    Help! I made this bread just about 1 & 1/2 hours ago and it is still not done baking, I don’t want to dry it out but my toothpick is still not coming out clean….do I keep cooking it? I know it’s unlikely that anyone will respond but I thought I would try!
    Thank you!

      Hey Samantha, Depending on how mashed up your bananas were, it might just be banana that is coming out on the toothpick. If you have been baking for 1.5 hours at 350 degrees, it should be done!
