Vegan Banana Bread Recipe

This Vegan Banana Bread recipe is moist, flavorful, and easy to make with just 8 main ingredients!Is there anyone in the world who doesn’t love banana bread? Do they actually exist? Even my husband, Tim, who doesn’t typically love banana-flavored things, is a big fan of banana bread.

I made you a vegan banana bread because I always get so many questions about how to make my non-vegan baked goods vegan. (And gluten free, but, you know, one thing at a time…)

I challenge anyone to detect that this is a loaf of vegan banana bread. It’s not too dense, perfectly moist (only appropriate word here; sorry…), and has incredible banana flavor.

Healthy Vegan Banana Bread

This tasty bread healthier than most banana bread recipes you’ll find. It’s got less sugar, uses one of the healthiest oils, avocado oil, whole grain flour, and also has ground flaxseed meal.

Yet, it doesn’t taste like you’re eating “healthy food.” Nothing makes my heart happier than when I create a healthy recipe that tastes just as delicious as any other recipe you may try.We are big fans of healthy banana bread recipes, so if you want to check out more, look at this Almond Butter Banana Bread or this Double Chocolate Zucchini Banana Bread recipe.

How to Make Vegan Banana Bread

It’s very easy to make vegan banana bread. You just need to have an egg substitute as everything else in traditional banana bread recipes are naturally vegan. I like to use ground flaxseed here as it lends its natural nutty flavor. Applesauce would probably work as well, but I haven’t tested it here.

Another trick to making a moist vegan banana bread is to add some apple cider vinegar to the non-dairy milk. This makes the milk act like buttermilk, which lends a soft and tender texture to baked goods.
