Even if you’re not following a vegan diet, this recipe is worth trying. It’s incredibly easy to make, requires simple ingredients, and results in a flavorful, moist loaf that’s naturally sweetened by bananas.


Banana bread is a timeless classic, loved for its moist texture, comforting sweetness, and ability to use up overripe bananas in the most delicious way. But what if I told you that you could enjoy the same rich, tender crumb and incredible flavor—without using any eggs or dairy?


This vegan version swaps traditional ingredients like butter and milk for plant-based alternatives such as vegetable oil and almond (or oat) milk, making it lighter and suitable for those with dietary restrictions.


It’s also a great way to use up overripe bananas while keeping things simple and wholesome.

If you prefer a traditional version with eggs and dairy, check out my classic banana bread recipe here! Whether you go vegan or not, both versions are incredibly delicious and easy to make.

👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions


Mash the Bananas

Take four bananas and mash them well in a large mixing bowl. Keep the fifth banana aside to slice for topping later.



Combine the Dry Ingredients

In a bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.



Mix Everything Together

Add the mashed bananas, almond milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract.



Stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the bread dense.

If using, fold in the vegan chocolate chips, nuts or crushed almonds.




Pour & Bake

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.



Slice the reserved banana lengthwise and place it on top of the batter.



Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of brown sugar for a caramelized topping; optional, sprinkle with nuts or crushed almonds



Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Substitutions & Tips


Flour Alternatives – Swap plain flour with whole wheat flour for added fiber, or use a gluten-free flour blend for a gluten-free version. Use a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend in place of regular flour.


Oil Alternatives – You can use melted coconut oil or even applesauce for a lower-fat option.


Sugar Swap – Instead of brown sugar, try maple syrup or coconut sugar for a natural sweetener.


Extra Flavor Boost – Add a pinch of nutmeg or a handful of chopped walnuts for a deeper, richer taste.
