I love banana bread, and now I can finally eat it since I came up with a vegan variation! I tried to make the recipe as healthy as possible. Ingredients:
2 cups whole wheat flour (you can use any other kind) |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 cup vegan margarine (trans-fat free, or you can use oil too) |
2/3 cup agave nectar (or 3/4 c. sugar) |
2 tablespoons ground flax seeds (or any other vegan egg replacer for 2 large eggs) |
2 tablespoons hot water |
2 1/3 cups mashed almost black bananas (very ripe) |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1 teaspoon carob powder |
1/4 cup chopped vegan chocolate (optional) |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven 350°F
2. Grease a 9 pan.
3. In a bowl, combine flour, soda, and the spices.
4. In a separate cup, combine the flax seed with hot water and let sit about 1 minute.
5. To the flour mixture, add softened or melted margarine and agave nectar. Stir.
6. Add in mashed banana with the egg replacer/flax mix and blend well. When everything is blended, stir in the chocolate.
7. Pour batter into the pan.
8. Bake in preheated oven for 60-65 minutes or when the toothpick comes out clean.
9. Cool bread for 10 minutes before serving.
