Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 3 large bananas, mashed
- 1/3 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1/4 cup almond or oat milk
- 1/2 cup maple syrup or coconut sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 1/3 cups chickpea flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- A pinch of ground nutmeg
- A pinch of sea salt
- 3 tablespoons raw walnuts, or pecans, chopped
- 4 tablespoons vegan dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 360°F (180°C) and arrange the baking rack onto the middle shelf.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the bananas, coconut oil, almond milk, maple syrup and vanilla.
- In another bowl, mix together the chickpea flour with the whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and sea salt.
- Slowly incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet ones and mix until just combined. Add in the walnuts and chocolate chips and gently stir until combined.
- Transfer the mixture into a 10-inch x 5-inch (25-cm x 13-cm) loaf tin covered with parchment paper, then level the batter surface with a spoon. Bake in the oven for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the loaf is golden on top. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the banana bread is ready.
- Remove from the oven, allow to cool completely, then transfer the banana bread onto a serving plate and serve.
Notes
Cooking Tip: For a nice little twist, you can also swap dark chocolate chips with white chocolate chips and replace walnuts with roasted pecans or almonds.
