Ingredients

• 3 large Ripe bananas
• 0.25 cups Unsweetened almond milk
• 0.25 cups Maple syrup
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1.75 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 1 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Chopped walnuts or vegan chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a standard 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork or potato masher until smooth and creamy.

Step 3

Add the almond milk, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Mix well to combine.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, stir together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.

Step 5

Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, folding gently with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix; some lumps are okay.

Step 6

If using chopped walnuts or vegan chocolate chips, gently fold them into the batter.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Step 10

Serve and enjoy your Low Fat Vegan Banana Bread as a wholesome snack or breakfast treat!
