Ingredients:

  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup or agave nectar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups gluten-free 1:1 flour
  • 1 cup gluten-free rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Optional mix-ins: chocolate chips, chopped nuts, dried fruit

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a 9×5-inch (23×13 cm) loaf pan by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas, melted coconut oil, pure maple syrup or agave nectar, and pure vanilla extract. Stir until the mixture is well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the gluten-free 1:1 flour, gluten-free rolled oats, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. If you desire extra flavor, fold in any optional mix-ins such as chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or dried fruit.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
  7. Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for approximately 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Once fully cooled, slice and enjoy your homemade Vegan Gluten-Free Soy-Free Banana Bread! Make it uniquely yours by adding your favorite mix-ins, creating a delectable gluten-free, vegan, and soy-free treat that’s perfect for any occasion.

Serving Suggestions: This banana bread is delightful on its own or served with a dollop of dairy-free yogurt, a spread of almond or peanut butter, or a drizzle of maple syrup. Pair it with a cup of herbal tea or your preferred plant-based milk for a satisfying snack.
