Servings: 4
- 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
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.
- 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.
- You can use most plant milks as a substitute for oat milk.
- Make sure to use REFINED coconut oil! It removes the strong coconut smell and gives you a nice smelling banana bread.
