Top Tips
The most important thing when making banana bread is to use very ripe bananas. Bananas with lots of brown spots will give the bread the sweetest flavour and are much easier to mash.
Make sure you mash the bananas well before adding them to the other ingredients. Small lumps are fine, but you want the majority of the banana to be smooth so it mixes evenly through the batter.
You can use either maple syrup or golden syrup in this recipe. Maple syrup will add a slightly richer flavour, while golden syrup gives the banana bread a more traditional sweet taste.
You can switch out the plain flour for a gluten free plain flour blend.
Allow the banana bread to cool completely before removing it from the loaf tin. This will help prevent it from breaking apart while it is still soft.
Storage
Store the vegan banana bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
You can also freeze individual slices for up to 3 months. Wrap the slices individually before freezing so you can take out just as much as you need.
