This deliciously moist vegan banana cake with pecan nuts is so good no one will guess it is vegan! No weird ingredients - find everything in your local supermarket.
Hands up if you're secretly delighted when a bunch of bananas tip over the edge of ripeness in your fruit bowl, so they are good only for making cake? Oh good, I'm glad its not just me.
A slice of freshly baked vegan banana cake must be at least in my top three favourite things to eat with a nice cup of tea, (alongside my vegan victoria sponge and vegan blueberry muffins!).
Healthy Banana Bread With Chopped Pecans
Deliciously sweet and studded with pecan nuts, this lovely cake was so easy to vegan-ise. I used my usual substitution of soya yoghurt in place of eggs, and dairy-free margarine in place of butter. Bananas make a great egg-replacer in themselves too, so there's no need for any binding agent, this has a superb texture.
No one will ever guess it is 'free-from' anything, and there are no weird ingredients - everything can be found in your local supermarket.
Dairy-free yoghurt I use soya yoghurt as it has the highest protein content of all the plant yoghurts, so it is the closest egg-replacer. But any other plant yoghurt will also work well - the bananas help with the egg-replacing too so it isn't as important as in my other cake recipes.
Banana Zucchini Carrot Bread With Pecans Vegan Yum!
Vegan butter Do use a good quality block margarine, rather than a tub of spread. Block margarine has a much lower water content so it makes quite a difference to the finished cake.
Self-raising flour Did you know that you can make your own self-raising flour if you don't have any to hand? Simply use the same quantity of plain flour and add 2 teaspoons of baking powder. (You will still need the bicarbonate of soda specified in the recipe too).
In a large bowl mix the dry ingredients - flour, sugar, bicarbonate of soda and salt. Melt the vegan butter and mix it into the yoghurt and mashed banana. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix until completely smooth.
Best Vegan Banana Bread
Stir the chopped pecans into the cake mix, and pour into the lined loaf tin. Slice the remaining banana in half lengthways and push the two halves into the cake batter. Cover with foil and bake for an hour, removing the foil for the last 10 minutes of baking time.
This cake is even better after being left overnight in an airtight container, so do make it a day ahead if you can. The moisture works through the cake and the crust softens, so it becomes even more deliciously soft and moist.
If you only have three ripe bananas to use up, just leave off the banana on the top of the cake - it will still be delicious!
The Best Gluten Free Vegan Banana Bread
Absolutely! You can freeze it whole, or slice it and put a piece of greaseproof paper in between each slice. Wrap it up tightly in foil or freeze it in an airtight container.
This is so quick and easy to make that you can easily make two at the same time - one to eat and one to freeze!
If kept in an airtight tin or container this will keep for 4-5 days - it is very moist and so keeps well. If you still have some left over after that, (unlikely!), you can freeze it in slices as above.
Vegan Pecan And Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Recipe
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I’ve been making vegan banana bread recipes for months now and haven’t been happy with the texture/density so thought I would try a cake recipe. Stumbled across your gorgeous site and made your banana cake yesterday and it is divine. I’m off to the market today for more bananas to make a few more loaves to freeze.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I made a big double quantity of this cake to take out on a soup run that I volunteer on. I also made an apple cake but everyone chose the banana cake and were really disappointed when it was all gone! Next month I’ll just make 2 double sized banana cakes. Thank you for an excellent recipe; really easy for a not-usually-very-successful baker! 🙂
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Love this recipe. It’s easy to follow and doesn’t take ages to prep and cook. The cake is yummy and moist. Will definitely be making again.
Easy Vegan Banana Bread
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This turned out so well I’ll be making it again tonight, a week later. I am not the most confident cook/baker, and I hate seeing recipes with too many ingredients, this one caught my eye as it is simple. My boyfriend was very complimentary about this, when normally he is very fussy 😉
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This recipe made the most amazing cake. I bake every ten years or so, so this is definitely a no fail recipe. Thanks for posting it 🙂

Banana Pecan Bread Recipe (step By Step + Video)
Hi! I'm Kate, vegan home cook and blogger behind The Veg Space and author of Vegan in 15. I'm passionate about creating easy vegan recipes that even a first-time cook can follow.Spelt banana bread is naturally vegan and made extra delicious with chopped pecans and chocolate chunks. 10 ingredients and simple to make.
It is honestly difficult to gauge what is appropriate to share right now. I had a roundup style post of pantry-friendly recipes ready to go, but it all had such strong doomsday-ish undertones to me. I know that these recipes are practical and needed for folks working through this collective unknown. I also know that as this time period of social distancing goes on, I’ll probably be sharing that content eventually, but right now I’m looking to cook for comfort as much as possible. Enjoying simple things in the moment.
There are so many messages that we’re being bombarded with on the news and social media right now, especially in the whole food and wellness community. Take vitamin C, get daily exercise, make sure you’re eating vegetables, go outside, sleep for at least 6 hours a day, don’t eat sugar, don’t drink alcohol, take adaptogens (uuuugh), engage in daily self-care practices, the list goes on.
Easy Banana Date And Nut Bread
All of these things are fine if you can do them, but if you’re experiencing acute levels of anxiety with no access to medication/support and you also have children to look after, sufficient sleep and self-care goes out the window fast. I saw a heartbreaking photograph of a frail elderly man staring forlornly at a wall of empty shelves at a grocery shore. Is someone going to scream at him to eat vegetables? If you’re living pay check to pay check and your employer just closed up shop, adaptogens are seriously the dumbest thing to be spending your money on. People with a platform: please think about your privilege and consider perspectives outside of your immediate awareness as you share new content right now.
I always ask myself if what I’m posting is helpful or useful. This feels especially vital in times of uncertainty. I am aiming to use my platform to spread moments of calm, positive energy (that’s also locked in on the seriousness of it all), and obviously some home cooking inspiration. This is a defining moment for all of us. I am trying to be mindful, useful, and compassionate.
There will be pantry-friendly recipes to come and of course I will be much more diligent on substitution questions as they come in. We all have to take this social distancing responsibility seriously to help those most at risk and to lessen the burden on health and medical professionals. If this means cooking and attempting to remix rice and beans for weeks at a time, I think we can do that. If you need help, I’m here.
Vegan Banana Bread The Best Moist, Fluffy Recipe! 1 Bowl Recipe
I had a bunch of deep brown bananas on the counter and while freezing them for smoothies or another future use may have been smarter, comfort and a break from this new routine just seemed necessary. Spelt banana bread for us. Other cozy loaves: pumpkin with chocolate and a zucchini one too. My partner and I are learning how to work together at home and a treat felt like the right thing. All we have is each other and the present moment. Be safe out there and keep looking out for
