Nothing quite beats a thick slice of banana bread with a little nut butter and a cup of tea or coffee. Since creating our 1-Bowl Gluten-Free Banana Bread several years ago, I’ve wanted to perfect an egg-free version. You guys seem to LOVE that recipe, and dare I say this vegan version is even better? I know — bold claim. But so true. Let me show you how it’s done! This 1 bowl recipe starts with a flax egg and mashed ripe banana — 3 ripe bananas to be exact. Then it’s naturally sweetened with maple syrup and coconut sugar, moistened with a small amount of avocado or coconut oil, and gets a boost of healthy fats and protein from almond butter! For the dry ingredients I stuck with our tried and true Gluten-Free Flour Blend, almond meal, and rolled oats. This combo just seems to work in quick breads. Walnuts add a nice crunch (and a healthy dose of omega-3 fatty acids). Plus, they take the aesthetic up a notch. After about 1 hour in the oven, your house will smell like heaven in a loaf pan. Behold: The Vegan Gluten-Free Banana Bread of my dreams. We hope you LOVE this bread. It’s: Tender on the insideGolden brown on the outsideNaturally sweetIncredibly heartySatisfying& So, so delicious This would make the perfect breakfast on the go, hearty snack, or healthier treat.
