You really don’t need dairy in a banana bread recipe to make it moist and delicious. Try this vegan option the next time you feel like a bit of a treat. The bonus of this recipe is that you can alter many of the ingredients to your taste, so it never has to feel like the same dessert!
What You’ll Need:
- 4 bananas - make sure they are as ripe as possible
- 1 cup dairy-free milk, depending on what you like (it could be almond nut milk or soy milk, for instance)
- 2 cups whole wheat flour (if you’re gluten intolerant, a flour that has no wheat or gluten will work just as well)
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup of cranberries (you could use a variety of ingredients here, such as berries, dates, nuts or a blend of a few ingredients)
- 2 mixing bowls
Instructions
- 1. Make sure you preheat your oven to 180 degrees while you make the bread.
- 2. Add the lemon juice and dairy-free milk of your choice together so that it can curdle.
- 3. Mash your bananas, then add them to the milk and lemon. Stir it well.
- 4. Taking a separate bowl, mix the baking soda, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, cranberries and flour.
- 5. Take the above ingredients and add them to the bowl with the bananas, milk and lemon. Stir them well. It’s already looking delicious!
- 6. Place a layer of tinfoil on the base of the baking tray, then scoop the mixture onto this foil. This is a good way to prevent the mixture from sticking to the tray and it helps you remove the bread easily after it has baked.
- 7. Pop the bread mixture into the oven and bake for approximately an hour.
Yum!

Is the oven temperature you posted celsius?
-
The instructions mention salt but it is not in the ingredients. Also temperature was too low leading me to think it was celsius. I'm guessing it should be 350 fahrenheit.

You could have been a bit more detailed about the recipe.

I'm guessing the oven temp is in Celsius. But, there's no mention of a pan either. Do you just bake it as a blob on the baking sheet? That's not what the picture looks like.
