Ingredients to make Vegan Walnut Banana Bread
- All-Purpose Flour or Plain Flour
- Baking Soda
- Ripe Bananas
- Organic Sugar
- Cooking Oil
- Soy Milk
- Vanilla Extract
- Walnuts
- Dark Chocolate Chips
Bananas: Use very ripe bananas to increase the sweetness of the bread. Let your bananas stay on the countertop for 2-3 days or till they turn brown in color with dark spots, they are the perfect bananas to make banana bread.
Cooking Oil: Use neutral tasting cooking oil like vegetable or canola oil.
Soy Milk: For almost all the vegan baking recipes soy milk is my go-to option because of the thickness and neutral flavor it has. You can substitute it with other plant-based milk like almond, oat, or coconut ( lite coconut milk ).
How to make Walnut Banana Bread
- Peel ripe bananas and add to a mixing bowl, mash using a fork or potato masher.
- Add sugar, oil, soy milk, vanilla extract to the same bowl with mashed bananas and mix together. ( this is a wet mix )
- In a separate bowl, add all-purpose flour, baking soda, and mix. ( this is a dry mix ).
- Add dry mix to wet mix and fold in with a spatula. Do not over mix, just mix till no dry flour is seen and no lumps are formed.
- Dust chopped walnuts and chocolate chips with flour and fold in the batter. Dusting walnuts and chocolate chips with flour avoid them from sinking down the bread while baking.
- Transfer the batter to a parchment-lined loaf pan ( 9 by 5 ) and spread evenly. Bake at 350F for 60 mins or till a toothpick inserted in the center of the bread comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool down for 5 mins in the loaf pan before taking it out. Remove bread from the tray and let cool completely on a cooling rack before serve.
- Serve warm banana bread with a drizzle of nut butter or maple syrup if needed!
