The Best Vegan and Gluten-free Banana Bread- made with a combination of oat and almond flour, this healthier banana bread is as wholesome as it is delicious!
This recipe has been a long time coming. Even though I already have a vegan and gluten-free banana bread on my site, I knew I could make a better version. Not that the old one isn’t good, I just wanted something with more of a classic texture. So over the past year, every time I had a few ripe bananas, I would test different variations of this recipe. I had to make so many little tweaks here and there that I eventually lost count of how many times I made it, BUT…it finally turned out PERFECT.
If you’ve baked vegan and gluten-free recipes that don’t involve starches then you know things often turn out dense and gummy. I find myself running into that texture all of the time. UGH. Let’s just say my goal in life is to avoid that outcome. When it finally happens I feel like screaming from the mountain tops.
The Best Vegan And Gluten Free Banana Bread
In all seriousness, it’s very hard to get the ratios and ingredients just right in order to avoid gumminess. With that in mind it’s hard for me to recommend substitutions but I know I will get a lot of questions regarding this so I might as well address it up front…
Technically you don’t need a blender to make this banana bread but it really helps incorporate air into the recipe which provides lift and reduces that dreaded dense and gummy texture. It doesn’t have to be a high speed blender. A NutriBullet would work just fine.
I included dark chocolate chips in the recipe because that’s what goes over best in my house but feel free to switch things up with chopped nuts (like walnuts or pecans), raisins, or whatever you prefer!

Unlike other vegan banana bread recipes on the web, we’re actually replacing eggs with just mashed banana. Some recipes use ground flaxseed (even I used to!) to make flax eggs, but I’ve actually found the texture is much better if we just omit the vegan egg substitutes all together.

Whisk together the wet ingredients. This is the banana, sugar, dairy free milk, melted vegan butter, and vanilla. You can just use a hand whisk for this. Then add in the dry ingredients to your large mixing bowl, and whisk or fold the dry into the wet. Finally, stir in the vegan chocolate chips.
Perfect Vegan Banana Bread (super Moist)

Pour your banana bread batter into your prepared baking pan, and top with an extra banana if desired. Bake for 55 minutes at 350F.
Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan. You can use an 8″ or a 9″ loaf pan. here. Top with extra chocolate chips or sliced banana if desired! I just do this for decoration and to signal that it’s banana bread (although you can definitely smell it from the kitchen!).
Vegan Banana Bread (gluten Free)
Bake the banana bread. Then allow the bread to cool for 10 minutes before removing from the pan. Then transfer the bread to a cooling rack or wire rack to cool some more. Allowing the bread to rest will ensure a cleaner slice.
Then slice and serve! Store any leftovers in an airtight container and keep at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the fridge for up to 7 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Stir the banana bread batter until it is just mixed. The dry ingredients should be fully incorporated into the wet, but since we’ll also be adding in the banana separately, make sure not to over mix, or you’ll end up with a gummy texture.
I personally recommend using weighted (gram) measurements over a measuring cup. Your measurements will be way more accurate, and you’ll be more likely to achieve the desired result. However, if you don’t have a kitchen scale, please make sure that you spoon and level the flour into your cup measurements rather than scooping the flour. Scooping will lead to too much flour in the batter, and unfortunately a dry banana bread!
Healthy Vegan Banana Bread
This is the key to a classic banana bread taste. Trust me, no one will know that this healthy banana bread recipe is entirely vegan, and I partially attribute this to the nutmeg. Nutmeg adds a nice kick to the cinnamon and makes it more lively.
I know how tempting it is to keep opening the oven to see how close you are to done, but don’t do this! Opening the oven will drastically alter the oven temperature (even if the clock doesn’t read it), because the hot air will rush out into a cooler kitchen (yes, 72F is considered way cooler than 350F haha!). This will change the way that the banana bread bakes. If you want to check on it, turn on the oven light, or if you need to open the oven, try to not do so until the
