How to Make Vegan Chocolate Chip Banana Bread
To get started, preheat the oven for 350 degrees. Get out a mixing bowl and add in the dry ingredient first. Stir lightly, then slowly add the wet ingredients and mix well. Line a bread pan with parchment paper and pour the mixture into the pan. Make sure the parchment paper is lined evenly.
On top, I love to go overboard with loads of mini chocolate chips. However, feel free to add as many or few as you like. Another great option if you’re not feeling the chocolate is to top the loaf with a healthier alternative like walnuts or pumpkin seeds. Once the toppings have been added, the batter is ready to bake. Place the pan in the oven for at least 60 minutes, checking on it about halfway through.
The mixture of brown sugar, bananas, and chocolate gives this dairy-free dessert a soft texture and sweet taste. Like with all baked goods, I love to enjoy a slice of this chocolate chip banana bread with a cup of hot coffee. You can store this bread in the fridge for up to two weeks. Enjoy!
