Ingredients for Banana Bonanza Bread Vegan

  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • Vanilla Extract
  • All Purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

How to Make Banana Bonanza Bread Vegan

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a standard-sized loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, mash 3 ripe bananas until mostly smooth. Add 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; mix until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional).
  6. Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
