You'd never guess this vegan almond banana bread is made from plant-based, whole-food ingredients - it's sweet and delicious and goes perfectly with coffee!
Start by mashing the bananas. Usually 5 bananas yields about 2 cups, but this will completely depend on the size of the bananas.
In a bowl, add mashed bananas and all other wet ingredients. Mix until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, mix together dry ingredients until everything is evenly combined.
Pour wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients, and mix until the batter is smooth and evenly combined.
Pour batter into a bread loaf pan lined with parchment paper. Top with chopped almonds, if you like.
Bake banana bread in the oven for about 30-40 minutes. To test if the banana bread is fully cooked, stick a knife or toothpick in the center and see if it comes out clean. If any batter is still stuck on, continue cooking the bread for 5-10 minute intervals until it comes out clean.
When the bread is done, let cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
Enjoy!
Notes
If you don't have spelt flour on hand, sub whole wheat. Also for this recipe I used a standard 9" x 5" loaf pan!
