Vegan Chocolate Chip Walnut Banana Bread
Moist, flavorful, and easy to make, this vegan chocolate chip walnut banana bread is the perfect plant-based treat for breakfast, dessert, or a snack!
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp Ground flaxseed
- 5 tbsp water
- 2 large ripe bananas (1 cup mashed)
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup almond milk
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg
- 3/4 cup chopped walnuts (plus extra for sprinkling on top)
- 3/4 cup dairy-free chocolate chips (plus extra for sprinkling on top)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, stir together the flaxseed and water. Set aside to thicken.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, almond milk, and flaxseed mixture. Stir until well combined.
- Gradually add the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Fold in the chopped walnuts and chocolate chips.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly. Tops with more chocolate chips and walnuts.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top starts to brown too quickly, you can cover it loosely with aluminum foil for the last 10-15 minutes of baking.
- Allow the banana walnut bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
