Banana Nut Bread

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

    3 ripe bananas
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    2 cups flour
    3/4 cup sugar
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a loaf pan. Mix the mashed bananas and oil in a large bowl. Stir in the flour, vegan sugar, salt, and baking soda. Mix in the nuts. Pour the well blended batter into the greased pan and bake for one hour. Remove and let cool.

I found this recipe works better than many I've tried since it sticks together much better, and is healthier for you since it doesn't require shortening and a lot of oil. Any oil will suffice howe'ver olive oil is the healthiest!

Makes: 1 loaf, Preparation time: 15 minutes, Cooking time: 60 minutes.


1 tablespoon of salt seems like a lot for a loaf of bread. Should it be 1 teaspoon?

Yum! I'll be making this again. I've just started changing my diet, deleting butter, milk and eggs etc... and this is my first recipe from this web site. I thought id end up with someing dry and drab, but this Banana Nut Bread is super. I cooked it in my nut loaf tin, added a sprinkle of sultanas to the mix. And cooked it for 40 mins at 180C Also 1tsp of salt is suffice. 1 tbs must be a mistake in the recipe

this is a good bread. I made some modifications, basically reduced flour by 1/2 c and added more walnuts and ground flaxseed. Reduced sugar to 1/2 c and used only 1 tsp salt per stoneys comment. I found the batter was a bit thick and added 1/2 c applesauce. my new favorite banana bread recipie...

this bread was delicious...I copied baypuppys idea of adding applesauce, used 1 tsp salt, and the results were great.

This was great! I used 1/2 whole wheat, 1/2 white flour and used the applesauce suggestion. I also used honey instead sugar and made these as muffins instead of a loaf. I tend to be sensitive to salt content, so even 1 tsp seemed a bit much to me...I might use a bit less next time. MMmmmmmm! Thanks!

Just brought this recipe from the oven.... it is absolutely wonderful! I did all the little changes suggested: 1/2 w.w.flour, 1/2 white, 1/2 cup applesauce,added flaxseed and used 1 tsp. salt.  GREAT!!!!  Just a question, could I use baking powder instead of baking soda and still get the same great results?  Tsp for Tsp?  THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!      Bunny

This bread was amazing. I added 1/2 cup soymilk and 1/2 cup oatbran. Even my boyfriend who doesn't like any baked foods liked it, and asked for more. Thanks for the recipe.  vegirunner

I was extremely impressed with this bread. It was the first vegan baked good I've made, and since it turned out so great, its given me a good impression of vegan baking and I'll be sure to do much more in the future.

Yummy yummy in my tummy  Grin tastes lovely, although next time I make it I'll use less sugar because it was slightly sweeter than it had to be.

One tablespoon is a lot of salt. I cut it back to like half a teaspoon, and didn't have any problems. I used a square baking dish with no problems at all. Very good solid recipe.

I didn't have walnuts on hand, so I used almonds instead. I also added a healthy bit of cinnamon, because I love cinnamon in banana bread. My whole house smells lovely right now.

This recipe was very simple and tasty. I left out the salt altogether, and added 1 tsp of vanilla extract, plus a few good shakes of cinnamon. I also added a bit of soymilk to make it more batter-like. I didn't have a loaf pan, so I baked it in a sqaure pan. It came out very dense and moist, and it was gone within a day!

I LOVE this recipe. We've made it so many times it's not even funny. It makes a perfect travelling snack, if you add 1 cup of oatmeal, 1 cup of dried cranberries, and 1 cup of slivered almonds to the base recipe. Believe me, the bread can take the addition of all those extra ingredients without blinking! It's especially good warmed up, and topped with peanut butter. My partner and I have memorised the recipe already.

Also, we used baking powder instead of baking soda, and it turned out perfectly anyway.

Very good...I used 1/2 cup of sugar some soy milk (since it seemed dry)and ground flaxseed. I also added cranberries.  I like that it has hardly any oil but is moist and good.

Cry I have submitted lots of recipes to vegweb but they have not posted my banana bread recipe. It's quite like the one above, except instead of the sugar i use 1/2 cup of maple syrup, add a tsp of pure vanilla, a shake of cardamom and cinnamon, and i also use a tsp of baking powder. For flour I find barley flour mixed with rye gives banana bread the best taste  Wink Moist and delicious! A failsafe recipe!

WOW! I just baked this and it tastes just awesome! It's super easy to make and gets done within minutes. I added some cinnamon powder and replaced the walnuts with almonds. My crust is nicely browned and has just the right amount of crispiness to it. LOVE IT! Will surely make it again. Cheesy
Oh yeah...I thought the salt was a bit much for my taste so am gonna cut down on it next time.

 Cheesy

this is a great recipe! i especially love the small amount of ingredients.. the bread turned out very moist. i was using small bananas so i added an extra, otherwise it would've been too dry. i also reduced the salt to 1 tsp. i found the bread to be quite sweet, which i like. however, those looking for less sweetness may want to cut back the amount of sugar.

Meh, wasn't really a fan. I added vanilla and cinnamon and there still wasn't enough flavour - a bit disappointing.

I like the flavor of this bread, but I'm pretty sure the texture didn't turn out. I baked mine in a convection oven, and adjusted the settings, but is it normally this... breadlike? The banana bread I grew up with always has a muffin texture.

Great recipe!  I replaced the salt with a few squirts of braggs (strange, I know), added a few teaspoons of vanilla, and took out 3/4ths a cup of flour and replaced it with 3/4s cup of steel cut oats.  I also upped the olive oil by a bit because I like my bread nice and moist.  It came out incredible.  The oats gave it that extra crunch, and I could not taste the broth flavor of the braggs at all.  Sweeeeet.
