BANANA BREAD

EARTH ANGEL VEGANS BANANA BREAD might be low sugar but it is big on banana flavor!  Enjoy this healthy version of beloved banana bread with ingredients like whole wheat flour, flax meal and walnuts.  This is perfect for breakfast, brunch or after dinner with a cup of coffee or tea.  It is beautiful baked in a Bundt pan… just as pretty as it is delicious.

Pre-heat oven to 350

I use a silicone Bundt pan but you could use a silicone loaf pan.  I use silicone because there is no fat or oil in this recipe. If you use a regular loaf pan … line it with parchment paper. I also use organic ingredients whenever available.

In a large mixing bowl place the dry ingredients:

2 cups whole wheat pastry flour

1/2 cup sugar

1 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 cup quick or old fashioned oats

In another mixing bowl place the wet ingredients:

3 tablespoons of ground flax and 1/3 cup warm water (let this sit while you mash the bananas). You can use a food processor to mash the bananas and milk together for a smoother batter.

3 over ripe bananas peeled and smashed

1/2 cup applesauce

1/2 cup oat milk (or other plant milk)

1/2 cup soy yogurt (or other plant yogurt)

1 teaspoon of vanilla

In the bottom of the Bundt or loaf Pan Sprinkle the following mixture

3-4 Tablespoons each… chopped walnuts, brown sugar, and oats

Instructions: 

Now mix the wet ingredients into the dry to form a batter.  Pour your batter into your pan and bake for 40 minutes.  Check with a tooth pick every five minutes and remove from the oven when the tooth pick comes out mostly clean and dry.  Let cool in the pan for 15 or 20 minutes and turn out on to a plate.
