This Vegan Chocolate Chip Banana Bread is one of my favorite ways to use up ripe bananas.
Classic banana bread gets a little chocolate twist!
My little one loves bananas, so I always buy extra bananas each week. He is always asking for a banana. Right when we get home from the store, Frankie helps me put away the groceries and always gets into the bananas.
Since I am always buying too many bananas, I often find myself with ripe bananas.
Whenever I have lots of ripe bananas, I have to make vegan banana bread of course!
Lately I have been on a big chocolate quick and thought why not add chocolate chips to banana bread!
If you love chocolate and bananas, you must give this banana bread with chocolate chips a try.
what you need to make the banana bread:
- Super ripe bananas- you want your bananas to be extra ripe when making banana bread
- Avocado Oil- I like using avocado oil when baking
- Sugar- Sugar will help to sweeten up the banana bread
- Plant Milk- I like to use an unsweetened almond or soy milk
- Vanilla Extract- For a little extra sweet flavor
- Dry Ingredients- For the dry ingredients, we will need flour, baking soda and salt
- Chocolate Chips- To keep this banana bread vegan, look for semi-sweet chocolate chips without any milk
How to store the quick bread
Store the banana bread in an airtight container for 2-3 days.
For longer storage, tightly wrap the banana bread in tinfoil and store in the freezer up to 3 months.
