Instructions

• Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
• Step 2: In a small bowl, mix the ground flaxseed with the water to create a flax “egg.” Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it thickens.
• Step 3: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
• Step 4: In another bowl, combine the mashed bananas, brown sugar, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and the prepared flaxseed mixture. Mix until well blended.
• Step 5: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently fold the mixture together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay!
• Step 6: If you’re using chocolate chips or any other add-ins, fold them into the batter at this stage.
• Step 7: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Step 8: Once baked, remove the banana bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing. Enjoy your Vegan Banana Bread warm or at room temperature!
