Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a standard loaf pan (8.5 x 4.5 inches or 9 x 5 inches).

  2. 2

    In a small bowl, combine the ground flaxseed (2 tablespoons) and water (5 tablespoons). Set aside to thicken for 5-10 minutes.

  3. 3

    In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas (2 large) with a fork until smooth (about mashed banana (1 cup)). Stir the melted vegan butter (0.33 cup) into the bananas.

  4. 4

    Add the granulated sugar (0.66 cup), dairy free milk (0.25 cup) and the flax egg mixture. Stir with a large spoon until well combined.

  5. 5

    Add the all purpose flour (2 cups) to the bowl with the wet ingredients. Sprinkle the baking soda (1 teaspoon), salt (0.5 teaspoon) and ground nutmeg (0.25 teaspoon) on top of the flour. Stir gently until just combined, do not overmix.

  6. 6

    Gently fold in the chopped walnuts (0.75 cup), if using. Pour into the prepared pan.

  7. 7

    Place in the center rack of the oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

  8. 8

    Let it cool in the pan for a few minutes, then transfer the loaf to a cooling rack. Let the banana bread cool for at least 30 minutes for easier slicing. Serve and enjoy!
