Ingredients

10 servings

2 tbsp ground flaxseed
6 tbsp water
3 medium very ripe bananas (about 1 ½ cups mashed)
⅓ cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
Chef's tip
Use a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one.
¾ cup packed light brown sugar
⅓ cup whole milk
Chef's tip
Use the same amount of soy milk as regular milk. It's one of the most reliable milk swaps and works in almost any recipe, including sauces, custards, and baked goods. In cold drinks or uncooked dishes you may notice a mild soy flavor.
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
½ tsp ground cinnamon
½ cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Instructions

1
Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and line the bottom with a strip of parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the two long sides.
2
In a small bowl, stir together the ground flaxseed and water until combined. Set aside for 5 minutes, until the mixture thickens to a gel-like consistency.
