Ingredients

  • 4 ripe bananas
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk can use non-dairy or dairy milk
  • 1/4 cup melted coconut oil any liquid oil will work!
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup whole wheat flour

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 325f or 165c. Grease the bottom and sides of a loaf tin. (I also line mine with parchment paper to ensure the bread doesn't stick.)
  • Mash your bananas until they're like a smooth puree.
  • Add eggs, vanilla, oil + milk to your banana. Mix well.
  • Add spices. baking soda + salt. Stir to combine.
  • Lastly, add in other flours. Mix until JUST incorporated. Over-mixing will result in a tough loaf.
  • Pour into the prepared loaf tin and bake for 50-55 minutes, until the top is golden and a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the centre.
  • Remove the bread from the tin and leave to cool on a cooling rack before slicing. 

Notes

Gluten-free: To make this bread gluten-free, simply swap out the whole wheat + all purpose flour for a gluten-free flour blend.
Vegan- If you'd like the make this vegan, I believe that swapping the eggs for flax or chia eggs would work!
4 mashed bananas should equate to roughly 1 cup's worth of banana when measured.
