    This recipe is one of my favorites, and I have always baked banana nut bread with eggs. Try my other eggless bakes.

    SO WHY VEGAN? Vegan Banana Nut Bread

    It’s because my kid is intolerant to eggs and that is why I try to bake without eggs. Believe me; this recipe turns excellent without eggs. It retains the texture and tastes terrific. That slice below – looks great, isn’t it? 

    From now on, this Vegan Banana Nut Bread is my go-to recipe for nutty bread. It’s

    • condensed,
    • moist,
    • dense and
    • packed with banana-walnut flavor.

    SECRET TO A MOIST BANANA BREAD!

    Ripe bananas are the secret. 

    Yes, ripe bananas – the ones that have brown flecks on the skin (though mine were not that brown). Why brown spotted bananas?

    Because the starch in the bananas have converted into sugar and that’s the reason ripe bananas taste sweet and are ideal for baking. 

    NOW ONTO THE RECIPE! Vegan Banana Nut Bread

    This one-bowl Vegan Banana Nut Bread is baked without butter, eggs, and dairy. Yes, you heard me right – no eggs, butter or dairy. Still, it produces a moist and tender crumb.

    Simply combine all the ingredients in a bowl. Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan and bake as directed. This recipe makes a perfect bread that is enjoyable with a cup of tea, coffee, milk or just as is.

      I’ve never tried a vegan, egg-friend bread recipe before, but given that my mother-in-law is also intolerant to eggs, I’ll definitely have to try it. I bet she’d love it! 🙂

      I’m so picky when it comes to bananas, and won’t eat them plain once they turn even slightly brown 🙂 But inevitably my bananas get too brown, so I’m going to save this recipe for the next time that happens. This bread looks fabulous, and there’s nothing like the smell of warm bread right out of the oven

      What a beautiful recipe! We love banana bread in our house, and make it at least once a week! Such great way to use overripe bananas!

      I made zucchini muffins a few weeks ago with the same spices as banana bread. This week I bought a bunch of bananas and they are just about ripe. Was totally going to make banana bread and this one looks delish!

      I’m vegetarian but try and eat vegan where I can so really appreciate this recipe! I love how it has such a compact crumb, like a proper piece of banana bread. Looks really great.

      Hello Ruchi,
      Happy new year!
      I like your banana nut bread recipe but I need to know if this is low carb, because I’m watching my intake of sugar.
      Thanks,
      Raj.

        Thanks for the wishes and Happy New year to you too!
        This recipe has approximately 242 carbs.
        But again that’s a rough estimate.

        Any brand of sugar and oil will work just fine with this recipe.
        I have used CH superfine sugar and Crisco canola oil for this recipe.

        Thanks Aparna!
        Yes, you can use regular buttermilk. Buttermilk is milk + vinegar.
        Please use the same measurements – substitutes are mentioned in the method section (step 7).
