Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 F and prepare a loaf pan with non-stick spray and parchment paper for easy removal and then set it aside.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the banana mash, coconut oil, milk, eggs, vanilla and brown sugar until smooth and well blended. In another bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt until combined. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and stir until no dry spots remain and transfer half of the batter to the prepared pan. Set the rest aside.

I donโt have coconut oil. Can i use any other types of oil?
Vegetable oil will just fine ๐
Could you also make this with regular flour?
Hi, I haven’t tried it with regular all purpose flour but I think it would work just fine. ๐
If I donโt have vegan butter can I sub in something else other than regular butter?
Hi,
Yes, you can use coconut oil if you have it.
Made this for a school baking contest and came in first!! Currently making a quadruple batch per the request of my family ๐. The first two loaves I made for the contest were gone in less than 12 hours so I figure we might get a full 24 out of this batch. A few friends have also made and loved this!! Thank you so much for a delicious crowd pleaser!
YAY!! I am so happy to hear this. Made my day ๐
