A delightful vegan banana bread recipe that is moist, flavorful, and easy to prepare.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch loaf pan.
Ensure your oven is fully preheated to achieve even baking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
Sift the dry ingredients together to avoid lumps.
In another bowl, mash the bananas until smooth, then mix in the sugar, vanilla extract, plant-based milk, and oil.
Use a fork or potato masher to easily mash the bananas.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
Avoid overmixing to keep the bread tender.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
Tap the pan gently on the counter to remove air bubbles.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Check the bread at 45 minutes to avoid overbaking.
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Allowing the bread to cool ensures it slices cleanly.
Slice and serve your delicious vegan banana bread.
Serve with a dollop of vegan butter or a drizzle of maple syrup for extra indulgence.
