Ingredients
  

  • 1+1/3 cup Mashed Banana (320g) About 3-4 bananas** do not go over this or the bread will be gummy!
  • 1 Extra Banana for topping This is optional
  • 2 Flax Eggs 2 tbsp flax + 5 tbsp warm water, mixed and left to sit for 10 minutes
  • 1/3 cup Apple Sauce Check ingredients for no added sugar
  • 2 tsp Vanilla
  • 1+1/3 cup Oat Flour
  • 1/2 cup Oats
  • 3/4 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon
  • ½ tsp Salt

Optional Add Ins

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350f and make your flax eggs.
  • To make your flax eggs mix 2 tablespoons of ground flax with 5 tablespoons of water. Let that sit for 10-15 minutes to thicken.
  • Add your bananas to a large bowl and mash them well. I weight out 320g of bananas but you can measure out 1+1/3 cups. Make sure to not go over this or your banana bread will be gummy.
  • Add in the wet ingredients and mix to combine.
  • Add your dry ingredients on top and mix again. Fold in your chopped walnuts and vegan chocolate chips.
  • Transfer your batter into a greased or lined loaf pan. I like to top my banana bread with an extra banana sliced lengthwise and some extra walnuts and chocolate chips.
  • BAKE at 350 f for 1 hour - 1 hour 15 min until the bread has darkened and has a nice crust on the outside. The bread should be crispy and golden on the outside and moist on the inside.
  • You'll know it is done when you can stab it with a toothpick and it comes out clean!
  • Enjoy as is or melt on some vegan butter.
