A simple recipe for moist, rich chocolate banana bread made entirely without animal products.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 large ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/2 cup plant milk (soy or almond recommended)
  • 1/3 cup melted coconut oil or neutral oil
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips or chunks

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a standard 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the mashed bananas, plant milk, melted oil, sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until just combined.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix gently until just combined; do not overmix. A few streaks of flour are acceptable.
  5. Fold in half of the vegan chocolate chips.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips over the top.
  7. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with moist crumbs attached.
  8. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before carefully transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • For a fudgier texture, use dark cocoa powder.
  • If your bananas are not very ripe, add 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar to the wet ingredients to help activate the baking soda.
  • Store leftover bread tightly wrapped at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze slices for up to 2 months.
