Ingredients
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 1/3 cup mashed banana
  • 1/2 cup non dairy milk
  • 3 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 1 flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed + 3 tablespoons hot water)
  • 3/4 cup vegan mini chocolate chips (plus 1/4 cup more for the top)
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
Instructions
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease an 8x5-inch bread pan.

  2. 2

    Prepare the flax egg by mixing one tablespoon of ground flaxseed with three tablespoons of hot water. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Sift all of the dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl.

     

  4. 4

    Add the non-dairy milk, coconut oil, and flax egg to the bowl and mix until well combined. Stir in the mashed banana until well combined. Fold in 3/4 cup of the mini-chocolate chips. Fold in the nuts (if using).

  5. 5

    Pour the batter into the bread pan and sprinkle 1/4 cup of mini-chocolate chips over the top.

  6. 6

    Place the dish in the oven and bake for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, with no wet batter remaining. 

  7. 7
    Allow the bread to cool before slicing. Seal in an airtight container to keep moist. Storing in the fridge is recommended if not consumed within 2 to 3 days.
