Why this is the BEST easy Vegan Gluten Free Banana Bread
Today’s banana bread recipe is one of my FAVES because it is moist (sorry, but it’s true), perfectly sweet and satisfying, AND caters to those who eat vegan and/or gluten free diets! I love a thick slice of ANY homemade loaf, whether it be chocolate paleo zucchini bread, healthy carrot bread, or today’s bomb gluten free banana bread recipe!
What can you use as an egg replacement in baking?
There are so many ways to make delicious baked goods without eggs. Whether you are following a vegan eating plan or have an allergy to eggs, you can easily forgo them! In this recipe, I used xantham gum to replace eggs, but some other options are applesauce and yogurt! I haven’t tried anything else in this recipe, though, so I don’t know how it would turn out in this particular recipe.
FAQs & Tips
Healthy vegan Banana Bread FAQ
Is Banana Bread Vegan?
Good question! Since there are so many ways to make banana bread, not all of it is vegan. This recipe, however, is as it does not require any animal products. Another fab vegan loaf recipe you’d love is Five Spice Eggless Vegan Zucchini Bread.
What can I substitute for the protein powder?
Unfortunately, protein powder is a MUST for this recipe. Since it is vegan and doesn’t use eggs, the powder is vital to give structure to the banana bread.
Can I leave out the Xantham Gum?
This is also a big NO, since the recipe doesn’t call for eggs. The combination of protein powder and xantham gum will provide that must needed structure to hold together the loaf.
How to storeGlutenFree Dairy FreeBanana Bread
Storing your delicious banana bread is key if you need it to last more than a couple of days. It’s important to keep it wrapped tightly in plastic wrap, foil, or in an airtight container. If you keep it in the fridge, your loaf should last about a week!
How long can Banana Bread be frozen?
Banana bread freezes really well, so if you want to bake some loaves to enjoy later on, freezing them is a great option! You’ll need to make sure they are wrapped tightly in plastic wrap, foil, or in a heavy duty freezer bag and they will last for 2-3 months!
