Equipment

  • Baking Oven

Ingredients

  • 1.75 cups self-raising flour
  • 1/3 cup coconut sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1.5 cups mashed bananas
  • 1/3 cup refined coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup oat milk

Toppings

  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup walnuts optional
  • 1 banana optional

Instructions

  • Preheat baking oven at 180C.
  • Sift flour and sugar together. Combine other dry ingredients: baking powder and salt.
  • Mash bananas in a separate, bigger bowl and add coconut oil, vanilla extract.
  • Mix the flour mixture and fold in (do not overmix!). If the mixture is too thick, add more milk until you get a less thick but gummy, stretchy consistency.
  • Pour into loaf pan and top with walnuts, bananas or dark chocolate chips. Bake for about 50 minutes - 1 hour and let cool for 20 minutes.

Notes

  1. There is not gluten free option for this recipe so far. However, for a healthier option, you can sub self-raising flour for wholemeal flour. Add 1 tsp baking soda to the dry ingredients in this case. 
  2. You can use most plant milks as a substitute for oat milk. 
  3. Make sure to use REFINED coconut oil! It removes the strong coconut smell and gives you a nice smelling banana bread.
